Only 22 suppliers are currently active in the Black Garlic category, which means each supplier has a direct and meaningful role in shaping the market. With such a small pool, buyers can expect personalized attention and deeper engagement when reaching out—no need to sift through a crowded field. There are 30 active listings, a modest number that suggests limited variety in packaging, grade, or origin. While not a vast catalog, buyers can still find a match for standard needs, though niche specifications may require direct supplier contact. Suppliers come from 12 different countries, offering a broad geographic spread. This diversity means buyers aren’t locked into one region’s supply chain and can explore alternatives based on cost, certification, or harvest timing. Just 1 buyer inquiry came in over the last 30 days, a sharp drop of 95.7% compared to the previous month. This quiet period suggests low current demand, which could mean better pricing or availability—ideal for buyers looking to secure volume before interest picks up again.

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 Garlic had 1 new listing in the last 30 days, fewer than the 3 the month before. The catalog is not growing quickly, so the offers available today are mostly from the previous month or earlier. Check the listing date when comparing offers to see which one is closer to current availability.
Is the market busy?
5 of the 22 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new sellers. The group includes both established names with a history of consistent listings and newer ones building their presence. The longer history of some suppliers helps buyers assess reliability over time, while newer ones offer less track record. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Black Garlic listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 20 October 2026 - 30 active listings, 2 buyer requests, 45 source documents, and 399 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 Garlic 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 Garlic, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
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.
