As demand for healthy, protein-rich plant-based foods grows across the Middle East, split peas have emerged as a key staple in Saudi kitchens, restaurants, and catering services. From traditional stews to modern diet plans, their affordability and versatility make them a sought-after legume. If you're looking for a reliable split peas supplier in Saudi Arabia, with competitive wholesale pricing and a legal import pathway, you're in the right place.

At Tamila Agrifood, we specialize in exporting premium-grade Iranian split peas — processed, cleaned, and packaged to meet the highest food safety standards. Here's everything you need to know about importing them into Saudi Arabia.

Why Iranian Split Peas Are a Smart Choice?

Iran has long been known for its high-quality pulses, thanks to its fertile lands and expert farmers. Iranian split peas stand out because:

•    Uniform size and golden-yellow color

•    No preservatives or artificial additives

•    Dried under natural sun conditions

•    Packaged in customizable bulk bags (25kg, 50kg, or tailored)

Unlike mass-imported products from Canada or India, Iranian split peas offer a higher protein-to-cost ratio, making them more appealing to budget-conscious Saudi importers.
