Is the market busy?

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Tamarind listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 17 October 2026 - 88 active listings, 15 buyer requests, 40 source documents, and 171 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 Tamarind, 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.
