25 suppliers are currently active in the Lotus category, with only one updating a listing in the last 30 days — just 4% of the total. This suggests a stable but slow-moving supply base, where most suppliers aren’t refreshing their offerings, meaning buyers should expect longer response times and may need to proactively reach out to stay current on availability or pricing. 67 listings are currently live, offering a decent range of options across different grades and packaging. While not a massive catalog, it’s enough that a buyer with a standard requirement can likely find a match without needing to start from scratch or wait for a new post to appear. Lotus suppliers come from 9 different countries, with Vietnam supplying 44.0% of the active exporters. This geographic spread gives buyers flexibility to compare options from a variety of regions, especially useful for those seeking specific growing conditions or quality profiles tied to origin.

For other requirements, ask each shortlisted supplier for the certificate up front.

Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
