Export-Grade Lint Fiber · Textile Grade

Cotton

Overview

Afghan cotton is cultivated primarily in the fertile agricultural zones of Helmand Province. USCG operates a dedicated cotton processing plant that handles ginning, cleaning, and baling to produce export-grade lint fiber. Our cotton is well-regarded for its fiber length, strength, and cleanliness — making it suitable for textile manufacturers across Central and South Asia.

Quality & Grading

All cotton undergoes multi-stage cleaning, ginning, and moisture testing at our Helmand facility. Fiber samples are graded and tested against international standards before export documentation is prepared. Grade classification and specific testing parameters are available upon request from our export team.

Afghanistan is globally recognized for producing some of the finest dry fruits and nuts in the world. USCG's Kunduz processing facility handles grading, cleaning, sorting, and hygienic packaging of a wide range of dry fruits — from sun-dried raisins and high-grade almonds to sweet dried apricots and aromatic pine nuts. We serve wholesale buyers and retail distributors across Central Asia, South Asia, and Europe.

Quality & Grading

Each batch of dry fruits undergoes multi-stage sorting and grading at our Kunduz facility to remove foreign matter, off-grade items, and moisture-affected produce. Purity, moisture content, and size are checked before packaging. Full traceability from farm to export container is maintained.
