Direct Wholesale Supply & Laser Sorting of Export Tree Almonds & Dry Fruits
Iran stands among the historical origins of tree almonds, acclaimed for indigenous cultivars such as the golden Mamra almond, exhibiting superior natural oil concentrations and exceptional taste. Exportmani operates advanced mechanical de-hulling, optical color sorting, and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP with nitrogen flush) to deliver inshell and shelled kernels calibrated by count (80 to 140 kernels per 100g). Guaranteed free from mold, shriveling, and aflatoxin contamination, our consignments are exported directly to India, the GCC, Turkey, and European seaports.

Strategic Export Almond Classifications
Cultivars distinguished by shell hardness, kernel-to-shell ratio, and high-value global consumer demand:
Golden Mamra Almond (Mamra Kernels)
The most prestigious and valuable almond in global trade (Primary Market: India)
Protected by an ultra-hard shell preserving prime freshness; features golden-yellow kernels, remarkable crunchiness, and exceptionally high natural lipid levels. Deeply rooted in Ayurvedic and holistic nutrition traditions, it commands the premier price segment across Mumbai and Delhi wholesale markets.
Paper-Shell Moheb Almond (Soft-Shell)
Ultra-thin, fragile shell easily cracked by hand fingers
Boasts an outstanding kernel yield exceeding 55%, sweet delicate flavor, and attractive light-brown skin. The highest-selling table nut for direct snacking across the UAE, Oman, Turkey, and luxury retail channels.
Shahrud & Shokoufeh Almonds (Commercial Standard)
Uniform confectionery grade tailored for chocolate & food processing
Elongated oval shape, uniform sizing, and virtually zero twin kernels (<2%). Highly resilient against mechanical transit and cost-competitive; favored by European industrial confectioneries, blanched slicing lines, and commercial retail packaging.
Stone Almond (Hard-Shell Stone Grade)
Heavy stone shell with highest shelf-life and oil extraction yield
Naturally impermeable to pests, worms, and ambient humidity fluctuations; the premier selection for extended multi-year storage, industrial hot roasting, pharmaceuticals, and pure cosmetic almond oil cold pressing.
International Almond Caliber & Sizing System (Count / 100g)
Graded strictly by grain count per 100 grams compliant with Indian and European commercial standards:
Super Luxury Caliber (80 - 85 Count)
Ultra-jumbo whole golden kernels, allocated for VIP holiday gift assortments and luxury banquet snacking in India and the Gulf.
Premium Commercial Caliber (90 - 95 Count)
Optimal visual size balance with constant high turnover, moisture below 4.5%, and zero surface scratch marks.
Standard Export Caliber (100 - 105 Count)
The industry benchmark providing the most competitive price-to-volume ratio for high-tonnage container loads.
Industrial Processing Caliber (120 - 140 Count)
Smaller kernels retaining identical vitamin E concentrations and fatty acid profiles; optimized for almond meal, slivers, and confectionery pastes.
