Shea Butter Supplier in Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Bulk unrefined Grade A and refined N-RBD shea butter for Dubai buyers, shipped from Lagos to Jebel Ali with a COA per batch.
Summary
- Port
- Jebel Ali is the principal container port of Dubai and the discharge point named on most UAE shea butter bills of lading.
- Free zone
- Dubai free-zone companies may enter cargo at Jebel Ali for re-export without a mainland customs declaration; a mainland sale requires a separate clearance.
Nigerian shea butter for the United Arab Emirates
the UAE does not produce shea nuts. Gulf and Levant buyers import the fat as they do other tropical vegetable butters. Dubai free-zone and mainland clearances are different jobs; Jebel Ali is the usual bill-of-lading port. EMI Agro works with 5,000+ women collectors in Kwara, Niger, Kaduna, Kogi. Jebel Ali 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. MoHAP filings sit with the the UAE 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 United Arab Emirates 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 Jebel Ali. 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.
