Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a direct Ceylon cinnamon supplier in Sri Lanka?
Harker Trade Co., the trading line of Harker International (Pvt) Ltd in Kandy, buys Ceylon cinnamon at origin and ships it to you under one contract, so you buy from Sri Lanka rather than from a reseller abroad.

What is the minimum order quantity?
Trial lots start at 10 kg (conventional, shipped by courier). Bulk orders start at 500 kg and scale to full container loads (20 ft / 40 ft). Tell us your target volume in your enquiry.

What is the difference between Ceylon cinnamon and cassia?
Ceylon cinnamon (true cinnamon) is grown in Sri Lanka and is naturally low in coumarin, with a lighter, sweeter flavour and thin, layered quills. Cassia is a different, darker species higher in coumarin. SriLankaExport supplies genuine Ceylon cinnamon.

How is bulk Ceylon cinnamon priced?
Pricing depends on grade (Alba, C5, C4 and others), format (quills, powder, chips), and volume, quoted FOB Colombo against your requirement. Submit an enquiry for a current quote.

Can you provide export documentation and certifications?
Yes. Standard exports include a certificate of origin and phytosanitary certificate, with food-safety and organic certification available depending on the supplier and grade.
