With a common MOQ of just 1 MT, buyers can test suppliers and scale gradually without large upfront commitments. The wide geographic spread—from India and China to Tanzania and Mexico—offers supply resilience across regions, reducing exposure to single-country disruptions. While pricing varies dramatically from $640 to $18,000 per MT, the high rate of phone-verified suppliers (47%) gives buyers direct access to real-time, reliable contacts to negotiate and verify quality—making it easier to find a competitive, trustworthy deal despite the price volatility.
