And this offers a range of opportunities for suppliers and exporters in international markets, especially as more consumers switch to fiber-rich diets, plant-based proteins, and sustainable crop sources.

Bulk Bean Trade: Key Considerations in Quality & Packaging

As an exporter or supplier, you should be aware of a few considerations while ensuring the quality of your bean commodity. Remember that both quality and packaging matter for a successful trade business. There are certain quality standards that beans importers or buyers look for. Staying updated with these standards can help attract more potential buyers. So, let's understand what these are.


Quality Considerations:

  • Should be uniform with consistency in size, color, & shape
  • Should be well-sorted & graded
  • Should be free from defects, infestation, or any foreign matter
  • Should be well-stored to prevent spoilage
  • Should have standardized moisture content (below 14%)


Packaging Considerations:

  • Prefer vacuum-sealed bean bags (especially for organic beans)
  • Choose suitable materials for beans. Polypropylene bags work better for dry beans
  • Should protect the beans from pests, damage, and moisture
  • Should have proper labeling with key information (like product name, variety, net weight, batch code, shelf-life, & storage instructions)
  • Use appropriate packaging size on the basis of buyer preferences


In addition, buyers of high-value niches like vanilla bean buyers, coffee beans buyers, and cocoa beans buyers often look for certifications for quality, ethical sourcing and sustainable farming practices.
