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?
Japonica Rice had 2 new listings in the last 30 days, after zero the month before. Only a handful of new listings appear each month, so the catalog changes slowly and older offers remain in place. That means a buyer sees the same core set of offers over time, with only minor updates. Check the listing date when comparing offers to see which one is more recent.
Is the market busy?
5 of the 25 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new suppliers. The group includes sellers with a long history and those who are still building their presence. That gives buyers more names to consider, but the newer ones have less track record to assess. 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 Japonica Rice listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 30 October 2026 - 50 active listings, 2 buyer requests, 11 source documents, and 88 supply observations from the same period. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
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 Japonica Rice, 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.
