Freshdi Plantain suppliers come from 12 countries, led by Kenya at 14.3%, as of 2 November 2026.
Only 14 suppliers are currently active in the Plantain category, and just 2 of them updated their listings in the last 30 days — only 3 have updated in the past 90 days. This means the supply is relatively static, and buyers should expect to engage directly with suppliers who are likely to have stable, long-term availability rather than a rapidly rotating catalog. There are 21 active listings for Plantain, which is a modest but sufficient number to find a match for standard grades or packaging needs. The low turnover suggests suppliers are not frequently refreshing their offerings, so buyers should verify product details closely before committing to a quote. Suppliers come from 12 different countries, with Kenya accounting for just 14.3% of the total. This broad geographic spread offers buyers flexibility in sourcing, allowing them to compare options across regions and potentially find suppliers with better logistics, certifications, or harvest timing.
