FAQ para compradores OEM

Q. What is the typical MOQ and lead time for kinako?

Industry-typical MOQ for kinako is 50–200 kg per delivery with 3–6 week lead times for standard yellow-bean SKUs. Hokkaido-origin or specific cultivar (e.g., Tsurunoko, Toyomasari) lots, organic certification, and non-GMO IP-handled lots add 2–4 weeks and lift unit cost.

Q. Can I source non-GMO, domestic-Japan-grown kinako?

Yes. Hokkaido is Japan's largest domestic soybean producer, and Hokkaido-origin kinako with non-GMO identity-preserved certification is widely available, though pricing can be 2–3x imported (US, Canada) raw soybean kinako. Confirm '国産大豆 100%' (100% domestic soybean) and IP handling certificate. Kyoto specialty producers also supply premium kinako with documented domestic origin.

Q. What COA parameters and certifications should I request?

Standard COA parameters: protein, fat, moisture (≤8% for shelf stability), ash, particle size distribution (typical 100–200 mesh), peroxide value (oxidation indicator — important for shelf life), microbiological limits, heavy metals, and aflatoxin (B1 + total) given soybean susceptibility. Certifications to consider: non-GMO IP, JAS organic, kosher, halal — these are commonly available from major suppliers.

Q. What shelf life can I expect, and how should kinako be packaged for export?

Kinako shelf life is typically 6–12 months from production when stored sealed at room temperature, limited primarily by lipid oxidation (the roasted bean oils oxidize). For export, request nitrogen-flushed multi-layer foil bags (5–10 kg), or vacuum-packed inner bags inside cartons. Cold-chain storage extends stability significantly; specify maximum cumulative heat exposure on the supply contract for tropical destinations.
