Golden Qaswa is a specialized facilitator for the export of Wholesale Chalgoza Pine Nuts in Shell (Pinus gerardiana). Harvested from pine cones in the high-altitude forests of the Western Himalayas [including regions in Pakistan, Afghanistan, India], these unique pine nuts are distinct from Mediterranean varieties, prized for their larger size, elongated shape, and rich, buttery flavour when roasted. Supplied in their natural hard shell, they offer extended freshness and an authentic experience. We connect B2B clients – including importers, wholesalers, distributors, premium nut retailers, and ethnic food suppliers – across Europe and the Middle East with sources for quality bulk Chalgoza.
