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?
Copper gained 94 new listings in the last 30 days, more than the 61 the month before. New offers are arriving at a faster rate than a month ago, so the catalog a buyer browses today includes more recent prices or pack sizes. Compare the listing dates when evaluating offers that look similar.
Is the market busy?
6 of the 194 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, mostly long-standing suppliers. The pool includes a mix of sellers with long histories and a small number of new entries. Buyers can access a broader range of options, but the majority of suppliers have a consistent presence over time. A shortlist will largely include sellers with established records, which makes it easier to assess reliability. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out.

Copper listings on Freshdi show a median price of USD 6,000 per metric ton, FOB, based on 12 current listings. The price range spans from USD 2,500 to USD 6,000, indicating significant variation that likely reflects differences in grade, origin, or market conditions. Buyers should examine each listing's specific details to determine if the price aligns with their required quality and destination requirements.
The typical minimum order quantity for Copper is 1.0 MT, with listings ranging from 1.0 to 5.0 MT. This low starting point allows buyers with small or pilot-scale needs to access supply without large upfront commitments. The consistent presence of 1.0 MT as both the typical and lowest value suggests it is a standard entry point for new buyers entering the market.
FOB is the most commonly used trade term for Copper, appearing in 65.4% of supplier listings on Freshdi. This term is widely adopted, but buyers should verify that each quote explicitly states FOB to avoid misunderstandings about shipping responsibilities and costs. The high usage makes FOB a reliable default, though it may not suit all buyer logistics needs.
43.9% of Copper suppliers on Freshdi use 'other terms' as their preferred payment method, indicating a lack of standardization in payment arrangements. This variability means buyers must negotiate and confirm each supplier’s specific terms before finalizing a deal. It is not safe to assume a standard payment method applies across all listings.
90.2% of the 194 Copper suppliers on Freshdi are verified, with 175 suppliers confirmed through the platform’s verification process.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Copper listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 27 October 2026 - 1,538 active listings, 441 buyer requests, 16 source documents, and 110 supply observations from the same 365-day window. 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 Copper 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 Copper, 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.
