Why We Serve Bihar — The Makhana Capital
Bihar and Darbhanga produce 90% of India's makhana supply. For a makhana processor, packer, or retailer in Bihar, sourcing raw makhana from inconsistent traders creates bottlenecks — especially during Chhath Puja (Oct-Nov) when demand surges 3x.
Chau Foods bridges this gap: we source directly from Darbhanga and Madhubani FPOs, grade makhana separately by suta size (4-suta, 5-suta, 6-suta, 7-suta), and ship to Bihar buyers with published pricing, GST invoices, and 5 kg MOQ so you can trial before committing. For sweet shops making laddoo and barfi, we also supply almonds, cashews, and raisins at competitive wholesale rates.
