Summary
Minimum order, trial order and sample are three different quantities: a sample verifies quality, a trial verifies process fit and logistics, and the MOQ covers an economic production run. A buyer should ask for all three up front. You can request a sample through the contact form.
EMI Agro's current minimum order: Standard orders start at 20 tonnes. Trial lots start at 5 tonnes. Smaller volumes can still be requested — we review every enquiry against current production..
Samples: Trial lots start at 5 tonnes of the named grade. Send the request even if you need less — we review whether we can supply..
