Fabstor is a certified B2B exporter and bulk supplier of premium Indian Fennel Seeds (Foeniculum vulgare / Saunf), sourcing directly from primary auction mandis across Gujarat (Unjha, Patan) and Rajasthan (Nagaur, Abu Road). Grown in optimal semi-arid climates that maximize natural essential oils, our fennel seeds are machine-cleaned and Sortex color-sorted to ensure bright green color, high anethole/fenchone content (2%–4%), and sweet licorice aroma.
Backed by a 50+ year parent supply legacy (Laxmi Group, est. 1975), we export certified Europe and Singapore grades in single-spice FCLs or consolidated mixed containers (LCL) worldwide.
