Wholesale pulses & grains · Netherlands
Plusimpex B.V. imports and supplies bulk pulses and grains from the Netherlands to food manufacturers, retail packers, wholesalers and food-service distributors across Europe. Chickpeas, lentils, beans, peas, rice, wheat, bulgur, barley, oats and ancient grains — cleaned, sized, sortex-sorted and delivered to specification in 25 kg bags, big bags or full container programmes as raw materials for production or retail packing.
Our pulses & grains range
Pulses and grains are traded by variety, calibre, purity and crop year. The six groups below cover the food-industry and retail demand we see most — tell us the application (canning, packing, milling, hummus, plant-based) and we will match origin, grade and format to it.
Kabuli chickpeas calibrated 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 mm from Türkiye, Russia, Argentina, Mexico and India, plus Desi chickpeas and chana dal. For canning, hummus and falafel producers, retail packing and roasting.
Red split (football and crimson), whole red, green, brown, French green and black beluga lentils from Canada, Türkiye, Kazakhstan and Australia. Sortex-cleaned, 99.5%+ purity, dehulled or whole.
White kidney (cannellini), red kidney, black, pinto, navy, borlotti, mung, black-eyed and fava beans, plus green and yellow split peas. For canning, retail packing and plant-based protein producers.
Basmati (1121, 1509, traditional), jasmine, long-grain parboiled, medium-grain, arborio and broken rice from India, Pakistan, Thailand, Italy and Vietnam. Sortex-sorted, EU pesticide-compliant, 5–50 kg bags or big bags.
Durum and soft wheat, coarse and fine bulgur, freekeh, pearl barley, rolled and whole oats, couscous and semolina for millers, cereal producers, food service and retail packers.
White, red and tricolour quinoa, buckwheat, millet, amaranth, teff, chia, flax and hemp seeds for health-food brands, cereal and bar producers and organic retail. Conventional and EU-organic.
Quality & specification
For a canning or packing line, a pulse lot is only usable if the calibre is uniform, the purity is right and the cooking quality is consistent. Before a shipment is confirmed we align variety, calibre, purity, moisture, crop year and packaging with your specification sheet — and document it on the certificate of analysis that travels with the goods.
Who we supply
A hummus producer, a canner and a retail packer specify the same chickpea differently. These are the four channels we serve most.
Canning-grade chickpeas and beans, lentils for soups and ready meals, bulgur and rice for prepared foods — with consistent cooking quality lot to lot.
Chickpeas, lentils, peas and fava beans for hummus, falafel, protein isolates and meat alternatives; quinoa and ancient grains for health-food brands.
Uniform-calibre pulses, basmati and jasmine rice and bulgur for 500 g – 5 kg retail packs, labelled to your artwork for supermarkets and ethnic retail.
Full and mixed container programmes for cash-and-carry, catering wholesalers and ethnic-food distributors across the EU, the UK and the Gulf.
Sourcing & logistics
We buy directly from processors and exporters in Türkiye, Canada, India, Pakistan, Argentina, Egypt, Kazakhstan and Eastern Europe, and consolidate through the Port of Rotterdam — Europe's largest agri-food gateway with bulk handling, bagging and re-cleaning facilities. One supplier, one set of documents and one delivery, however many origins are in the programme.

Buyer questions
For most products the practical minimum is one pallet (around 1,000 kg) per item, which can be combined with other Plusimpex products into a mixed container. A 20 ft container holds roughly 20–24 t bagged; full loads and annual programmes receive the most competitive pricing.
Kabuli chickpeas in 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 mm calibres from Türkiye, Russia, Argentina, Mexico, Canada and India, plus Desi chickpeas. For hummus and canning, 8–9 mm is the standard; 10–12 mm is used for retail and roasting. Calibre and origin are always stated on the offer.
Yes. Every lot is tested at origin, and for higher-risk products such as basmati rice and lentils again on arrival, against EU maximum residue levels including glyphosate, chlorpyrifos and tricyclazole. Reports are supplied with the shipment.
Yes. EU-certified organic chickpeas, lentils, quinoa, rice and oats are available, and all pulses and grains are supplied with a non-GMO declaration. Organic lead times are longer and minimums may be higher, so let us know early in the enquiry.
Stored dry (moisture below 14%), cool and ventilated, away from pests, pulses and whole grains keep 24 months and rice 12–18 months. Flaked and milled products are best used within 6–12 months. See our storage guides.
