Freshdi lists and verifies the buyer badges and these six requests are live and actionable today.
Key Takeaways

- Verified buyers: 6 buyers show a verified-buyer badge where present; trust ratings range from 3.8 to 4.5 out of 5 among buyers that provided a trust_star.
- Top product named: "lentil" family entries (red split / red whole / feed) appear across 6 requests.
- Trade/payment transparency: 6 RFQs state a trade term and 6 state a payment term (mostly L/C); when buyers leave terms open, propose terms in your first reply.
- Major trade term share: Among RFQs that name a trade term, CIF appears in at least 3 requests and the most frequently named destination port is Chittagong (named explicitly) and DJIBOUTI appears once.
- Product split implication: Requests include red split lentils, red whole lentils and feed-grade whole lentils, indicating suppliers should match processing capability (split vs whole) when responding.
- How do I see full buyer contact details for these Top 6 Lentils buying requests in Canada?
Answers: Full buyer contact and bank details are gated; suppliers must unlock each request on Freshdi to view contact information and submit a quotation. The platform vets buyer badges before revealing contact info. - Are these RFQs still valid and how does expiry work?
Answers: Each RFQ's posted date is shown in the table above; many have no explicit expiry and remain active until the buyer closes them. Quantities and status can change as buyers confirm purchases, so treat listings as time-sensitive. - What does a verified-buyer badge mean for these requests?
Answers: A verified-buyer badge indicates Freshdi has validated contact/phone or platform-level trust checks; in this snapshot all six buyers are marked verified where the field is present and trust_star values are shown in the profiles. It reduces but does not eliminate standard commercial checks like bank reference and LC confirmation. - How should I structure a quotation for CIF + L/C requests?
Answers: For CIF requests name freight and insurance to the specified destination port in your pro forma, include full packing details (e.g., 25kg PP if requested), indicate the LC terms you accept (sight, usance) and attach quality/certificate evidence where requested; several RFQs above explicitly require L/C and CIF. - What if I only supply split or whole lentils — how do I compete across these RFQs?
Answers: State clearly which form you supply in your listing and quotation and confirm conversion or processing lead time if you can split or repackage. Many buyers name "lentil" generically but favor specific forms (split vs whole) in the RFQs above; aligning your product form with the stated RFQ specification increases win probability.

Which Lentils Grades and Specifications Buyers Named
| No. | Grade or product | Number Of Requests Match |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | lentil | 6 |
| 2 | split, lentil | 3 |
| 3 | whole, lentil | 2 |
Counts overlap because several requests name multiple forms (e.g., split vs whole) in the same listing.
Most-named value: "lentil" appears in 6 of 6 requests, twice as often as the explicit "split, lentil" mentions. If a supplier does not offer the most-named form (for example split lentils) they should clearly state alternative formats and conversion capability in their listing to avoid disqualification.
Technical specs: only some requests carry detailed specs. The HS CODE 071340 _ Red Lentils Masoor Split Dal, GRADE A RFQ names Crop Year 2024, Grade A, shelf life minimum 2 years and packaging 25kg PP; Lentils names Unpolished, Non GMO, Organic and lists HS code 071340; Red Split Lentils calls itself Premium-Grade and notes Origin: Canada.

Order Size, Trade Terms & Payment Terms
Order size. Six of the six RFQs include a quantity figure. Smallest-to-largest explicit figures: 5 Tons (Lentils), 60 tons (I want to buy pulses...), 1000 Tons (Red Split Lentils), 12,500 MT (HS CODE 071340 ... GRADE A), 55,000 Tons (Red Lentils). Grouping into supplier-fit segments: sample/specialty (5T), small commercial (60T), bulk/container-capable (1,000T and 12,500 MT), and major commodity tender (55,000T). Responding requires appropriate packing capacity and logistics planning per segment.
Trade terms. Six RFQs name a trade term: CIF appears in several listings (including Red Split Lentils and HS CODE 071340 ...), FOB appears in at least two (I want to buy pulses..., Lentils), CNF appears in Feed Grade Whole Lentils. A majority CIF share implies quotations should include freight and insurance to the named destination port; quotations on different terms are not directly comparable to CIF offers.
Payment terms. All six RFQs name a payment term and the dominant value is Letter of Credit (L/C) or variants (L/C, LC, Letter of Credit). None explicitly request payment-on-delivery or open credit. Because many buyers specify L/C, suppliers should be prepared to accept L/C at sight or L/C terms specified in the RFQ. A small number leave finer LC conditions unspecified; propose standard L/C at sight or a partial deposit plus balance by shipping documents if you need an alternative.
→ Add CIF (or clearly listed alternative Incoterms) and L/C acceptance details to your listing and price sheets so term-filtering buyers can find and compare your offers.
