The export average is a customs value across every grade, so it runs below a price for one grade and one packing. Our range sits above it because it covers sorted grades, export packing and inspection. Neither number is a firm quote. Prices follow nut supply in Sri Lanka and global vegetable oil markets, so they move. For the wider market, see Ceylon commodity prices.

Grades and what changes the price

  • Cut: fine, medium, coarse, long thread and chips. Each cut is priced separately, so name the cut when you ask for a quote.
  • Fat level: high-fat desiccated coconut (fat 63% or more on our specification) for bakery and confectionery, and low-fat for fillings and mixes. Tell us the fat level you need.
  • Specification: our bulk specification is moisture 3% or less, free fatty acid 0.3% or less, SO2 50 mg/kg or less and total plate count 5,000 cfu/g or less, with a 12-month shelf life. Tighter limits can be quoted.
  • Packing: 25 kg kraft paper bags with a poly liner are standard. Cartons, private label and custom packing change the price.
  • Quantity and timing: larger lots price lower per kg, and the price on the day you confirm counts.
