White Maize, Grade 1

Grade 1 white maize for human consumption, supplied to millers, food processors and government food-security programmes across Africa.

Grade 1 white maize in 50 kg bags loaded for bulk export from South Africa
Product Overview

White maize is the staple grain across much of Southern and East Africa, and South Africa is the region's largest reliable surplus producer. Demand spikes sharply in deficit years, which is when tender volumes and price both move fast.

Grade 1 is the milling grade: tighter limits on defective kernels, foreign matter and moisture than feed-grade maize. We quote against stated grading parameters and confirm the crop year on every offer.

Aflatoxin is the critical food-safety parameter. We test to the destination's regulatory limit and supply the certificate with the shipping documents. Where a buyer nominates an independent laboratory, we will load against that result.

Frequently asked

Is your maize GMO or non-GMO?

We declare GMO status per consignment. Non-GMO can be sourced where the destination requires it, subject to availability and a price premium.

How is aflatoxin controlled?

Every consignment is tested against your destination's regulatory limit and the certificate travels with the shipping documents.

Can you supply against a government tender?

Yes. Send the tender specification and required delivery schedule and we will quote the programme rather than a single shipment.
