Market Overview

Supplying the Oman Market

Oman has one of the strongest per-capita basmati rice consumption rates in the Gulf, driven by its deep-rooted culinary tradition of Shuwa, Kabsa, and biryani alongside a large South Asian expatriate population. The Port of Sohar and Muscat's Sultan Qaboos Commercial Port provide excellent connectivity for Indian exporters, with Oman also serving as a transit point for East African markets. BABJEEXPORTS supplies Omani importers with BRC-certified, consistently graded basmati at competitive CIF Muscat pricing.

Oman's per-capita basmati consumption is among the highest in the Gulf, with demand driven by both local Omani cuisine traditions and a South Asian expatriate community representing over 40% of the population.
