Origin & Sourcing

Dried, Not Fresh — and That Changes the Spec

Dried ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a different commercial product from fresh ginger: the rhizome is dried to roughly 10–12% moisture, concentrating pungency and extending shelf life. Shandong supplies large volumes of the dried whole rhizome; Yunnan and Guangxi supply slices and lower-cost powder material.

The key quality levers are drying temperature and sulphur treatment. Low-temperature drying preserves gingerol and the bright, fresh-sharp note; over-dried or sulphured material reads flat and dusty. We confirm drying method and sulphur status for each lot.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common buyer questions. For detailed technical data, please request our product brochure.

Is dried ginger a substitute for fresh?

Only in part. Drying concentrates the pungent gingerols but changes the aroma: dried ginger is warmer and woodier, fresh ginger is brighter and more citrus-like. Formulas written for fresh ginger usually need adjustment.

Do you supply sulphur-free ginger?

Yes. Sulphur dioxide is sometimes used to preserve colour, but many markets now restrict it. We can supply sulphur-free material with the treatment method stated on the COA.

What is the minimum order quantity for Ginger from China?

Our standard MOQ for Ginger is 1 MT per grade, so a buyer can run a trial lot through their own line before committing to a container. A 20′ container holds roughly 18–24 MT depending on product and packing; a 40′ FCL is quoted on the same basis.

Can I get a sample of Ginger before ordering a container?

Yes. 200 g–500 g samples of Ginger are supplied free of charge for evaluation; the buyer covers courier freight, or the sample can travel with the first shipment. Tell us the grade, packing form and destination and we cut the sample from the current lot.

How long does it take to ship Ginger from China?

Production runs 25–30 working days from order confirmation, depending on grade, packing and current stock. Ginger then moves to Qinzhou port, or the port you nominate; ocean transit is quoted per destination when freight is confirmed.

What payment terms do you accept for bulk Ginger orders?

We typically accept T/T (30% deposit, 70% against B/L copy) or L/C at sight for new buyers. Repeat buyers can move to negotiated terms after the first shipments.

Can you pack Ginger under my own brand?

Yes. Bag size, carton design and label content can follow your market's rules, and we send a dieline proof before the run starts. Custom packaging starts at 1,000 kg per design.

Which documents and test reports come with a Ginger shipment?

The standard set is COA, phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin, commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading. Pesticide residue, aflatoxin, heavy metal and microbiology reports for Ginger are issued by third-party labs such as SGS, Eurofins or BV on request. We do not hold an FDA facility registration; for US imports we support your importer's FSVP and prior-notice paperwork with batch-level documents.
