Supplier to UK

About Whole Masoor
Whole Masoor (Lens culinaris) is the unsplit, brown-skinned red lentil — the whole form before dehulling reveals the orange interior of split masoor dal. Whole masoor retains its seed coat, giving it a firmer bite, a nuttier flavour, and a longer cook time than the split lentil, making it ideal for traditional whole-lentil dishes, sprouting, salads, and feed.
India is the world's largest lentil producer (~1.2 million MT), with whole masoor grown as a Rabi (winter) crop concentrated in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. Whole masoor carries 24–26% protein and is machine-cleaned and colour-sorted for export. Its intact seed coat gives it excellent storage stability and pest resistance.
Globally, whole lentils trade in tiers: premium bold colour-sorted whole masoor for retail and sprouting, standard whole masoor for traditional cooking, and feed-grade lentils. India differentiates on diaspora loyalty, bold seed size, and cleaner glyphosate residue profiles compared with bulk-export origins such as Canada and Australia.
Compliance & Quality Standards for UK
Post-Brexit, the United Kingdom operates a fully independent food import regime separate from EU rules. All food products entering Great Britain must meet UK Food Standards Agency (FSA) requirements, and importers must notify the UK government via the Import of Products, Animals, Food and Feed System (IPAFFS) before shipment arrives. IndianXporter prepares all UK-specific phytosanitary certificates endorsed by India's Plant Quarantine authority and ensures compliance with UK Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs), which have been updated since Brexit. HMRC import declarations are filed under the Customs Declaration Service (CDS). Organic products require UK Organic certification through a UKAS-accredited body. We provide fully bilingual (English) commercial invoices compliant with HMRC commodity codes under the UK Global Tariff schedule. At IndianXporter, we ensure every batch of whole masoor exceeds the quality expectations of UK importers and adheres to all local regulatory mandates.
