27 suppliers are actively offering Flax Seed on the platform, with 5 updating their listings in the last 30 days and 8 in the last 90. This shows a steady, though selective, level of engagement—meaning buyers can expect some freshness in product details and terms, even if the overall activity is modest. It also suggests that while the pool isn’t large, each supplier is likely focused on maintaining a reliable presence. There are 42 active listings available right now, which provides a solid base for buyers to find a match without needing to start from scratch. The number of listings is enough to cover common grades and packaging options, though not vast—so buyers should still verify specs closely to avoid mismatches. Flax Seed is sourced from 13 countries, with India accounting for just 18.5% of suppliers. This wide geographic spread means buyers have multiple origin options to consider, which can be useful for sourcing based on quality, processing methods, or compliance needs beyond just price. Buyer inquiries dropped 81.8% over the last 30 days to just 10—this is a sharp decline that may signal reduced demand or a temporary slowdown in interest. For buyers, it means now is a good time to act: with fewer inquiries, suppliers may be more responsive and available to discuss new opportunities.

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?
Flax Seed had 3 new listings in the last 30 days, after zero the month before. Only a handful of new offers appeared, so the catalog is not growing quickly and older listings remain dominant. That means buyers see a consistent set of offers, with little change in the mix over time. Compare the listing date when evaluating offers that are otherwise similar.
Is the market busy?
18 of the 27 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, more than half of the sellers are new. The pool includes both long-standing and newer sellers, which increases the number of names to consider. 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 Flax Seed listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 18 October 2026 - 42 active listings, 74 source documents, and 506 supply observations from the full 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 Flax Seed 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 Flax Seed, 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.
