Walnuts
Explore Dry Fruits
Walnuts (Juglans regia) are an exceptionally high-demand, nutrient-dense nut commodity heavily traded globally across the health, baking, and wholesale snack sectors. Known for their high concentration of polyunsaturated fats, walnuts require precise harvesting and low-temperature storage to preserve quality and prevent rancidity. Aba Impex sources its premium walnuts from orchards featuring cool climates and rich soil conditions that foster heavy, kernel-rich shells. Our processing facilities utilize advanced shell-cracking machinery and meticulous optical scanning lines to deliver clean, unbruised walnut halves. We carefully separate our kernels into strict color brackets (Extra Light, Light, Amber) to align perfectly with our buyers’ exact specifications. By keeping our processing lines cool, managing internal humidity below 5%, and using vacuum packaging, we safeguard the delicate oils. This delivers fresh, bitter-free walnuts that meet the strict food-safety benchmarks of global food industries.
