Refined N-RBD shea butter for pharmaceutical excipient in Hong Kong
Refined N-RBD shea butter for pharmaceutical excipient shipped from Lagos to Hong Kong.
Summary
Why this grade in Hong Kong
Hong Kong does not grow shea as a commercial crop. Refined N-RBD shea butter for pharmaceutical excipient is imported from West Africa. EMI Agro loads at Apapa and Tin Can Island for Hong Kong (typical ocean range 32–50 days). DH filings sit with the importer in Hong Kong.
Duty, documents and clearance live on the import guide for Hong Kong. Packs, quote basis and ports live on the supplier page.
Nigerian shea butter for Hong Kong
Hong Kong is a destination market, not a shea-growing region. Drums arriving at Hong Kong are West African origin. Hong Kong Customs is not mainland China Customs; a Hong Kong discharge is not an NMPA entry. EMI Agro works with 5,000+ women collectors in Kwara, Niger, Kaduna, Kogi. Hong Kong 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. DH filings sit with the Hong Kong 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 Hong Kong 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 Hong Kong. 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.
