How does Nigerian shea butter physically reach São Paulo?

Containers are billed to Santos. São Paulo buyers arrange the inland haul from that terminal unless the quote names a delivered Incoterm. EMI Agro does not operate a warehouse in São Paulo.

Who in São Paulo typically buys bulk shea butter?

National cosmetics and food hub. The country supplier page holds pack and documentation questions; this page is the São Paulo delivery picture.

Can EMI Agro deliver a sample to São Paulo before a container?

Sample size and the route into São Paulo are confirmed on the quote. A sample does not replace the ANVISA filings the Brazil importer still makes on a commercial shipment.

Nigerian shea butter for Brazil

Shea trees do not grow as a commercial crop in Brazil; the fat is imported. West African Vitellaria paradoxa is the botanical source. ANVISA watches finished cosmetics; Santos serves São Paulo. Manteiga de karité is the local search term. EMI Agro works with 5,000+ women collectors in Kwara, Niger, Kaduna, Kogi. Santos is the usual discharge.

Ask for a batch COA on a NIS 571:2013 basis: free fatty acid, peroxide value, moisture, colour and melting point. Reject lots that smell sharply rancid or pour like liquid oil at room temperature. ANVISA filings sit with the Brazil importer — they do not replace a COA.

Trial lots start at 5 tonnes; standard orders start at 20 tonnes. Send the request even if you need less — EMI Agro reviews every Brazil enquiry against current production of 40 tonnes per week of finished shea butter and can schedule rolling shipments. Lead time is Ibadan production plus ocean time to Santos. Quotes are EXW, FOB or CIF; each term prices different services beyond the butter.
