249 suppliers are actively offering Coconut Shell Charcoal, with 35 of them updating their listings in the last 30 days. This level of activity shows a steady flow of new or refreshed offers, meaning buyers can expect current, relevant specs and pricing rather than outdated information. The consistent turnover also suggests suppliers treat this category as a priority, making it easier to find reliable, up-to-date options. 450 active listings are currently live, covering a broad range of grades, packaging sizes, and certifications. With so many options available, buyers can quickly find a match that fits their exact requirements without needing to start from scratch or rely on custom quotes. This depth of listings also implies that suppliers are regularly refreshing inventory, which helps maintain supply stability. Suppliers come from 27 countries, with Indonesia accounting for 53.4% of the total. This wide geographic spread gives buyers flexibility to choose based on cost, certification, or supply chain proximity—especially useful if they're looking to diversify or hedge against regional disruptions. The strong Indonesian presence still makes it the most common source, but the diversity of other countries offers real alternatives. Buyer inquiries dropped sharply by 85.7% to 211 in the last 30 days, a significant decline compared to the prior period. This sudden drop suggests reduced demand or market saturation, which could mean suppliers are currently less busy—offering buyers a better chance to secure volume or negotiate favorable terms before demand rebounds.

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?
Coconut Shell Charcoal had 51 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?
102 of the 249 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a large share of newcomers. The pool mixes sellers with a long listing record and sellers who are still building one. That gives buyers more names to choose from, but the newer ones need a closer look before a first order. Check verification and start a new seller with a sample or a small trial order.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Coconut Shell Charcoal listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 17 October 2026 - 450 active listings, 87 buyer requests, 312 source documents, and 2,193 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 Coconut Shell Charcoal 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 Coconut Shell Charcoal, 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.
