With suppliers spread across India, Ukraine, Iran, Egypt, and the U.S., buyers gain access to diverse sourcing options across different harvest seasons and logistics environments, reducing reliance on a single region. However, the vast price range—from $200 to $24,000 per MT—signals significant quality and cost variation, so buyers must verify supplier credibility and product specs to avoid overpaying. Combined with only 37% business-verified suppliers, the market carries a notable risk of unverified sellers, making due diligence essential before committing to payment terms like 30% advance and 70% on B/L.
