Green Lentils
Green lentils are whole green lentils, cleaned, sortex-sorted and export-grade processed known for their firm texture and mild, earthy flavour. They retain their shape during cooking, making them highly suitable for foodservice, retail, and industrial applications. Green lentils are widely traded in bulk and are valued for their versatility and stability in large-scale supply chains.
Key Specifications
Green lentils are a reliable bulk product for importers seeking consistency, shelf stability, and broad culinary use.
Red Lentils (Split)
Split red lentils are dehulled red lentils divided into halves, revealing their red-orange colour. This is the most demanded red lentil form globally due to fast cooking time, easy processing, and wide use in food manufacturing, retail packing, soups, purees, and ethnic cuisines.
Key Specifications
Split red lentils are a core commodity for high-volume trade, especially across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, where they are widely used in food processing, retail packing, and traditional cuisines.
Red Football Lentils
Red football lentils are dehulled whole red lentils that remain intact after processing. Unlike split red lentils, football lentils keep their rounded shape and are supplied for markets and applications where whole red lentils are preferred.
This product is traded less frequently than split red lentils and is usually supplied based on origin availability, crop quality, processing method, and buyer requirements. Terraviis confirms current specifications, packaging, inspection options, and shipment terms before issuing a formal offer.
Key Specifications
Red football lentils are a specialized red lentil form supplied for markets and buyers that require whole dehulled lentils rather than split flakes.
