36 suppliers are actively offering Frozen Lobster, which provides a solid base for comparison without being overwhelming. With only 5 of them updating their listings in the last 30 days, the supply feels stable but not dynamic—buyers should expect slower refreshes and may need to reach out directly to confirm current availability or pricing. 139 listings are currently live, offering a wide range of options in terms of size, packaging, and processing. This depth means buyers can find a close match for their needs without having to start from scratch or wait for a custom quote to be created. Suppliers come from 19 different countries, giving buyers a broad geographic range to choose from. This diversity means sourcing isn't limited to one region—buyers can explore alternatives based on cost, lead time, or regulatory preferences, adding flexibility to their procurement strategy. Buyer inquiries dropped 90.2% over the last 30 days to just 8—this sharp decline suggests reduced demand or a temporary lull in interest. For buyers, this could mean more favorable terms or pricing, as fewer competitors are vying for the same suppliers' attention right now.

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?
Frozen Lobster gained 10 new listings in the last 30 days, more than double the 4 seen the month before. The catalog is growing quickly, so the offers available today are not the same as those from a month ago. Compare the listing dates when evaluating offers to see which are closer to current market conditions.
Is the market busy?
15 of the 36 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a large share of newcomers. The category now includes both long-standing and new sellers, which increases the number of options but means each new seller has less history to evaluate. Buyers can explore a wider range of suppliers, but the newer ones require more due diligence before a first order. Review each supplier’s listing history before contacting them.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Frozen Lobster listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 19 October 2026 - 139 active listings, 13 buyer requests, 30 source documents, and 254 supply observations from the same period. 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 Frozen Lobster 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 Frozen Lobster, 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.
