Export Documents →Frequently Asked Questions: Wholesale Tea Export
Can international wholesalers consolidate multiple tea grades in a single ocean container?
Yes. Wholesalers frequently combine diverse tea varieties—such as commercial Assam CTC brokens, high-color Dooars tea, Darjeeling orthodox flushes, and specialty spiced chai blends—into a single 20ft or 40ft ocean container. This allows wholesalers to satisfy diverse regional retail demand without over-committing capital to single-grade full container loads.
What minimum order quantity (MOQ) applies to wholesale tea procurement?
For international maritime export, standard baseline shipments start at full container load (FCL) volumes (20ft or 40ft containers). For specialized single-estate orthodox lines or sample commercial trial orders, consolidated palletized breaks can be arranged subject to freight feasibility and buyer schedule.
How does Byahut assist wholesalers with competitive wholesale pricing structures?
By operating at the regional sourcing hub of Siliguri, we procure directly from tea gardens and through authorized auction buying channels at STAC and GTAC. Bypassing unnecessary multi-tier intermediaries allows us to offer transparent wholesale pricing pegged directly to primary market auctions and garden-gate invoice levels.
How are wholesale consignments packaged for warehouse handling and resale?
Bulk wholesale tea is packed in commercial bulk multiwall kraft paper sacks with food-grade protective liners, configured to buyer specification. Each sack features customized multi-language stenciling indicating grade, garden invoice code, net weight, gross weight, and harvest date for straightforward warehouse inventory tracking.
