The world’s production of sesame seeds is estimated to be 3 million tonnes. Almost 70% of the world’s crop is consumed in the producing countries, which leaves just 30% for global trade. India, China and Myanmar in Asia, Sudan, Ethiopia, Nigeria and Tanzania in Africa, as well as Guatemala and Mexico in Central America are the major producers and exporters of sesame seeds. China, Japan and Turkey are the major importers. The sesame crop in most African countries has been increasing steadily of late.

Anugrah sesame seed business started in West Africa in 2005, with the first shipments travelling from Nigeria to Turkey. Growth through geographic expansion followed, as the company set up strong supplier operations in the countries of Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Mali and Ethiopia.

Anugrah plans to increase its presence in the value-added agri-commodity trade, and to expand its operations into Central America, with the eventual aim of becoming the world’s leading supplier of sesame seeds and Groundnut Kernels.
