Sunflower Seeds
In-shell, striped, black oil, hulled and organic sunflower seeds, Grade A or B.
In-shell striped seed is what most direct-snacking buyers want — the format sold at retail for eating out of hand. Black oil seed is a distinct, smaller variety grown specifically for oil pressing rather than snacking, and shouldn't be confused with striped seed despite both being "sunflower seeds." Hulled (kernel-only) seed suits bakery, granola and confectionery inclusion where the shell isn't wanted.
We carry an organic-certified line. Confirm which format and variety you need on the RFQ — in-shell striped and hulled kernel are priced very differently per kilo.
