14origins
Freshdi Chestnut suppliers come from 14 countries, led by China at 23.3%, as of 1 November 2026.
30 suppliers are currently active in the Chestnut category, with 3 updating their listings in the last 30 days and 6 over the past 90. This shows a steady, though modest, level of engagement—meaning suppliers are maintaining visibility, but not rapidly refreshing their offerings. For buyers, that suggests a reliable base to work with, even if the pace of updates is slow and conversations may need to be more proactive. 67 active listings are live, offering a solid range of options across different grades, packaging, and origins. With this depth, a buyer is likely to find a close match without needing to start from scratch or rely solely on custom quotes. The presence of so many listings also implies that suppliers treat chestnut supply as a consistent, ongoing business rather than a one-off offering. Suppliers come from 14 countries, with China accounting for 23.3% of the total. This broad geographic spread gives buyers flexibility to compare options from different regions, which can be useful for sourcing based on quality, processing methods, or compliance needs. While China is a notable contributor, the diversity of origins means buyers aren’t locked into a single source.

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?
Is the market busy?
5 of the 30 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new suppliers. The pool includes sellers with a long listing history and a smaller group of newer entries. That gives buyers more names to consider, but the newer ones have less history to evaluate. Check verification and start a new seller with a sample or a small trial order.

The typical minimum order quantity for Chestnut is 5.0 MT, with listings ranging from 1.0 to 22.0 MT. This range allows both small-scale and large-volume buyers to find viable options, though the typical 5.0 MT suggests a standard threshold for most suppliers.

CIF is the trade term used by 15.8% of Chestnut suppliers on Freshdi. This is a relatively low percentage compared to other terms, meaning most suppliers offer FOB, which places the cost and risk on the buyer. Buyers should confirm the exact trade term when requesting quotes to avoid unexpected shipping or insurance costs in their final pricing.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Chestnut listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 25 October 2026 - 67 active listings, 1 buyer request, 8 source documents, and 76 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 Chestnut 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 Chestnut, 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.
