How to Judge Almond Quality Before You Buy
A 6-point checklist used by our sourcing team for every incoming shipment. Use this when you evaluate samples from any wholesaler — not just us.
Uniform size within the pack
Large variations indicate mixed-grade supply. A true NPX 20/22 pack will have 200 almonds counted out per 100 g, all within a 10% size range.
Skin colour consistency
Look for a uniform light brown. Dark patches, black spots, or a chalky white film are signs of oxidation or pest damage.
Firm bite, sweet taste
A fresh almond snaps when bitten and tastes faintly sweet. Rubbery, soft, or bitter almonds are aged or improperly stored.
Moisture content under 6%
Pack should feel dry to the touch, not sticky. Moisture above 6% accelerates rancidity and reduces shelf life.
Broken kernel count under 3%
Premium grades keep broken pieces under 3%. CAL (mass-market) grades can go up to 5%. Anything higher is bakery-grade, not retail-grade.
FSSAI + ABC documentation
Ask for FSSAI licence number and Almond Board of California (ABC) Certificate of Origin. Legitimate importers always provide both.
Who We Supply Almonds To

Wholesale Case Studies
Three real buyers across India — anonymised by request. Each started with a 10-25 kg trial before scaling to a regular contract.
Case 1
A Mumbai gifting studio
Problem
Was sourcing NPX almonds from local traders but faced inconsistent sizing across batches during peak Diwali demand.
Solution
Switched to a monthly 100 kg contract with Chau Foods on guaranteed NPX 20/22 with pan-India shipping. Kept a safety stock of 25 kg for last-minute orders. Peak-season reorder cycle dropped from 7 days to 3 days.
Case 2
A Bengaluru chocolate studio
Problem
Needed slivered almonds for a premium chocolate bar launch — but sourcing locally resulted in high variability and long lead times.
Solution
Chau Foods sourced NPX whole almonds at competitive rates and provided slivering service at competitive rates with pan-India shipping included. Final landed cost competitive rates — saved 33% vs local sourcing, with in-house slivering 48 hours before delivery for maximum freshness.
Case 3
A pan-India corporate with offices in 5 cities
Problem
Needed 500 Diwali gift boxes with premium dry fruits across multiple cities on a competitive rates/box budget, turnaround 10 days.
Solution
Chau Foods designed a custom 400 g box (100 g NPX almonds, 100 g W240 cashews, 75 g Bihar makhana, 75 g premium raisins, 50 g pistachios) at competitive rates landed with separate shipments to all offices. Delivered in 8 days with custom printed sleeves and per-office addressee tags.

Free NCR + Pan-India Shipping
Same-day or next-day dispatch across Delhi NCR. Bulk orders (25 kg+) ship pan-India in 3-7 days via Delhivery and Shiprocket.
A Note on Almond Sourcing
We import California almonds in 25 kg vacuum-sealed bags directly from Almond Board of California registered exporters. Each consignment clears Mumbai customs with Certificate of Origin, phytosanitary clearance, and ABC documentation. The almonds then move to our Delhi cold-chain warehouse where we grade, sieve, and repack into retail and wholesale units for pan-India distribution.
We do not mix California stock with Indian (Kashmiri) or Iranian stock — each origin is stored separately, tagged separately, and invoiced separately. If you order 25 kg of NPX 20/22, you receive NPX 20/22 with documentation. It sounds obvious; it is unfortunately not always industry standard.

What are the health benefits of eating almonds daily?+
Almonds are one of the most nutrient-dense nuts. Per 100g: 579 calories, 21g protein, 49g healthy fats, 3.4mg Vitamin E (227% DV), 270mg magnesium (64% DV). Daily almond consumption (23 almonds / 28g) lowers LDL cholesterol by 5-15%, supports brain health, strengthens bones, and aids weight management. Soaked almonds (bhige badam) are especially popular in Ayurveda for brain power and memory.
How many almonds should you eat per day?+
The recommended daily intake is 20-23 almonds (about 28g). This provides 164 calories, 6g protein, 14g healthy fats, and 37% daily Vitamin E needs. For children, 5-8 almonds daily is ideal. Soaking almonds overnight and peeling the skin makes them easier to digest and enhances nutrient absorption — a common Ayurvedic practice.
Do you ship to all Indian cities?+

What is the difference between California and Mamra almonds?+
California almonds are broader, lighter, sweeter — best for retail, baking, confectionery. Mamra (Iran / Afghanistan) is smaller, darker, curvier, oil-rich — Ayurveda considers it premium for soaking and daily consumption. Mamra costs 2-3x California.
