Countries

7origins

Freshdi Sponge suppliers come from 7 countries, led by Indonesia at 20.0%, as of 4 November 2026.

Only 10 suppliers are currently active in the Sponge category, and none have updated their listings in the last 30 days — just 2 did in the past 90. This means the supply is stable but static, so buyers should treat each supplier as a one-off opportunity rather than a long-term source. With such a small pool, every conversation matters and should be approached with care and specificity. There are 12 active listings for Sponge, which is a modest catalog. While it doesn’t cover every variation in size, density, or finish, it still offers enough options for buyers to find a close match without needing to start from scratch with a custom request. Sponge suppliers come from 7 countries, with Indonesia making up 20.0% of the total. This spread offers some geographic flexibility, though Indonesia is a minor player here — buyers seeking alternatives to Indonesian sponge can still explore the other six countries for different qualities or certifications.

9 of 10 suppliers are verified, at least three in four, so the badge is worth checking before contacting anyone. Replies typically come within the day, which keeps a sourcing round short. Only 1 of 10 suppliers lists a certificate, and all of them hold a CERTIFICATE_OF_ORIGIN. For a shipment requiring origin documentation, filter for that certificate or ask each shortlisted supplier for it up front.
