Freshdi Market Insight
Make smarter Iced Tea sourcing decisions with real market data
Germany (15.4%) and the United States (15.4%) lead the 13 Iced Tea suppliers, with Australia at 7.7%, so sourcing options are concentrated in these key regions. The typical range is USD 80 - 240 per metric ton FOB, centered at a USD 120 median, meaning buyers should compare price points across grades and origins. Buyers request CIF more often than suppliers offer it — a 24.4 percentage point gap — so a CIF price must be explicitly asked for in negotiations.

Freshdi Iced Tea suppliers come from 11 countries, led by Germany at 15.4%, as of 1 November 2026.
Only 13 suppliers are currently active in the Iced Tea category, and just 2 of them updated their listings in the last 30 days — only 3 did over the past 90. This means the supply is relatively static, and buyers should treat each supplier as a potential one-off partner rather than a long-term source. With few updates, freshness in product specs or pricing may be limited, so direct communication is key to staying aligned with current offerings. There are 40 active listings for Iced Tea, offering a range of flavors, packaging, and formulations. While not a massive catalog, it's enough to find a close match for most standard needs without having to start from scratch. The presence of this many listings suggests suppliers are maintaining visibility, even if they aren’t frequently refreshing their content. Iced Tea is supplied by 11 different countries, with Germany making up just 15.4% of the total. This geographic spread gives buyers flexibility to explore regional variations in flavor profiles or production methods, and means they aren’t locked into a single origin. It also reduces reliance on any one country’s supply chain or export policies.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Iced Tea listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 29 October 2026 - 40 active listings, 2 buyer requests, 185 source documents, and 727 supply observations from the last 90 days. 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 Iced Tea 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 Iced Tea, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Demand-versus-supply differences in trade and payment term shares are stated in percentage points, and origin rows add buyer requests per listing. Each figure carries its market scope - global - beside the number rather than in a footnote.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
