Nigerian shea butter for Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia does not produce shea nuts. Gulf and Levant buyers import the fat as they do other tropical vegetable butters. SFDA and SABER are Saudi programmes; Jeddah and Dammam are the Red Sea and Gulf doors. EMI Agro works with 5,000+ women collectors in Kwara, Niger, Kaduna, Kogi. Jeddah 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. SFDA filings sit with the Saudi Arabia 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 Saudi Arabia 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 Jeddah. Quotes are EXW, FOB or CIF; each term prices different services beyond the butter.
Two questions. We show the grade, the documents that usually apply and the next step — we do not invent a price.
