Sesame Seed · 탄자니아

We supply to the major importers in the largest markets; Japan, China, the Middle East and Turkey. Further, ETG is the only sesame commodity trader able to provide traceability for African sesame seeds from origin to consumption. Sub-Saharan Africa has by far the lowest usage rate of fertilizer compared to any other region in the world and Africa currently accounts for less than 1% of the global fertilizer market. Many African farmers do not produce high yields because they cannot afford or gain access to the fertilizers or agrochemicals for their nutrient-depleted soil needs. ETG’s African farm gate presence enables soil expertise, fertilizer and farming equipment to reach small and scattered farming communities at affordable costs. Improving Africa’s soil productivity requires increased but targeted use of fertilizers. This issue has become a priority for national governments and international development agencies. All African origination takes place at the farm gate level. ETG’s sesame seed volume is sourced from Ethiopia, Tanzania, Mozambique, Uganda, Nigeria, Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso, Kenya, India, Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire, Bangladesh, Turkey, China, Pakistan and Somalia. At present, China and Japan are ETG’s main destination markets, with others including Europe, India, Korea, Vietnam, Turkey, Greece, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Germany, USA, Canada and Russia. ETG’s diversified origination strength is instrumental to cater for a wide variety of clients from all sectors of the trade. These include Oil Crushers, Tahina and Halawa (Halva) producers, sweet manufacturers, bread factories and other bakery industries. All sesame seed cleaning is undertaken at ETG facilities and we plan to further expand our operations in Africa by utilising modern cleaning technology as well as de-hulling plants in Mozambique, Togo and China.
