This is the preparation cycle, not your delivery lead time.Where the grade and quantity you need is already prepared and available from export stock, shipment is far quicker. Where it depends on a forthcoming harvest, we confirm the timeframe once the crop is in. Tell us your timing at enquiry stage and we will be straight with you about what is realistic.

Lots are laboratory tested by our sourcing partners before packing. Each consignment carries a lot-specific certificate of analysis.
Certificates of analysis, phytosanitary certification, certificate of origin and full export paperwork are shared directly with buyers at the point of order. Partner details and certification are not published on this website.
