26 suppliers are currently active in the Paprika category, with 7 updating their listings in the last 30 days — a sign of steady engagement. This level of activity means buyers can expect fresh pricing and availability updates, reducing the risk of being stuck with outdated or stale offers. 70 active listings are live, offering a broad range of options across different grades, packaging, and origins. With this depth, buyers can find a match that fits their specific needs without having to start from scratch or rely on custom quotes. Suppliers come from 14 countries, with China leading at 34.6%. This wide geographic spread gives buyers flexibility to source from regions with different quality profiles, certifications, or supply chains — a key advantage when seeking consistency or regional specificity. Only 1 buyer inquiry came in over the last 30 days, a sharp 93.8% drop from the previous month. This decline suggests low current demand, which may mean suppliers are not fully committed to new orders — buyers should proceed with caution and verify interest before committing.

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?
Paprika saw 14 new listings in the last 30 days, more than double the 3 listings from the previous month. The catalog is growing quickly, so offers from the past month are now outnumbered by newer ones. Compare the listing date when evaluating similar offers to ensure the most recent one is selected.
Is the market busy?
5 of the 26 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new sellers. The pool includes both established names with a history of consistent listings and newer entries building their presence. That expands the range of options, but the newer ones have less track record to assess. Review each supplier’s listing history before initiating contact.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Paprika listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 26 October 2026 - 70 active listings, 10 buyer requests, 27 source documents, and 243 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 Paprika, 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.
