151 suppliers are actively offering Palm Kernel Shell, which means buyers have a broad pool to choose from and can compare pricing, certifications, and lead times. The fact that 27 suppliers updated their listings in the last 30 days shows active engagement — not just static inventory, but a market that’s still moving and responsive to buyer needs. 251 listings are currently live, covering a range of grades, pack sizes, and specifications. This depth means buyers can find a close match without needing to start from scratch or rely on custom quotes, especially for standard requirements. Suppliers come from 32 countries, with Indonesia accounting for 36.4%. This wide geographic spread gives buyers flexibility in sourcing — they can target specific regions based on cost, quality, or compliance needs, rather than being locked into one origin. Only 14 buyer inquiries came in over the last 30 days, a dramatic 97.2% drop from the previous period. This sharp decline suggests reduced demand or a temporary lull in interest, which could mean suppliers are less busy now — a window for buyers to secure volume at potentially better terms.

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?
Palm Kernel Shell saw 43 new listings in the last 30 days, more than double the 17 from the previous month. The catalog is growing rapidly, so the offers available today are newer than those seen a month ago. Compare the listing dates when evaluating similar offers to ensure the one chosen reflects current market conditions.
Is the market busy?
25 of the 151 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new suppliers. The pool includes both sellers with established histories and those who are still building their presence. This gives buyers more names to consider, but the newer ones have less track record to assess. Review each supplier’s listing history before initiating contact with a new seller.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Palm Kernel Shell listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 9 October 2026 - 251 active listings, 55 buyer requests, 28 source documents, and 161 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 Palm Kernel Shell 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 Palm Kernel Shell, 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.
