Freshdi Market Insight
Make smarter Black Cardamom Seeds sourcing decisions with real market data
India (29.9%) leads Black Cardamom Seeds supply, with Ethiopia and Tanzania each at 7.1%, among 127 suppliers across 34 countries, so sourcing from outside India requires careful evaluation of alternatives. The typical range is USD 2,000 - 6,450 per metric ton FOB, centered on a USD 3,950 median, meaning price varies widely and quality or origin may influence final offer. Buyer inquiries increased 31.8% to 29 in the last 30 days. Buyers request CIF more often than suppliers offer it — a 38.1 percentage point gap — so a CIF price must be explicitly asked for in negotiations.

How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Black Cardamom Seeds had 17 new listings in the last 30 days, the same as the month before. The catalog is refreshing at a steady pace, so newer and older offers sit side by side. That gives a buyer a regular flow of new offers to weigh against the established ones. Check the listing date when comparing two similar offers.
Is the market busy?
8 of the 127 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, mostly long-standing suppliers. The pool leans on sellers with a listing history, while a small group of newcomers adds choice. Newer sellers have less record to judge them by. Check verification before placing a first order with one of them.

For a shipment requiring HALAL certification, filter for that standard to focus on suppliers who hold it. For anything else, ask each shortlisted supplier for the certificate up front.

244 listings from 127 sellers, filterable by type, MOQ, trade term and certification.
Black Cardamom Seeds on Freshdi have a median price of USD 3,950 per metric ton, FOB, based on 80 current listings. The price range spans from USD 2,000 to USD 6,450, indicating a significant spread that reflects differences in quality, origin, and grade. Buyers should evaluate each listing individually, as the price variation suggests that sourcing decisions must be tied to specific product characteristics rather than a single benchmark.
The typical minimum order quantity for Black Cardamom Seeds is 1.0 MT, with a range from 0.15 to 5.0 MT across current listings. This flexibility allows buyers with small or variable needs to still access supply options, making it easier to test demand or align with production cycles. However, the wide range suggests that volume may influence pricing and availability, so buyers should confirm MOQs directly with suppliers.
FOB is the most commonly used trade term for Black Cardamom Seeds, appearing in 45.3% of supplier listings on Freshdi. This term is standard for international shipments and reflects the buyer's responsibility to arrange shipping once goods are loaded at the port of origin. Buyers should verify that FOB is explicitly stated in each quote, as mismatched terms can lead to unexpected cost or logistics burdens.
87.4% of the 127 Black Cardamom Seeds suppliers on Freshdi are verified, totaling 111 verified suppliers based on platform checks. Additionally, 62 suppliers list a certificate, with HALAL being the most common at 8 suppliers, providing a strong signal of compliance and quality.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Black Cardamom Seeds listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 28 October 2026 - 244 active listings, 43 buyer requests, 95 source documents, and 697 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Black Cardamom Seeds type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Black Cardamom Seeds, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Demand-versus-supply differences in trade and payment term shares are stated in percentage points, and origin rows add buyer requests per listing. Each figure carries its market scope - global - beside the number rather than in a footnote.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
