Dried rosemary leaf from Moroccan, Tunisian and Spanish crops — whole leaf, cut or ground, with volatile oil content tested for seasoning, meat processing and antioxidant extract supply.
Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus) is grown commercially around the western Mediterranean. Morocco and Tunisia dominate supply of dried leaf, with Spain supplying both leaf and extract-grade material.
Beyond culinary use, rosemary is bought for its antioxidant activity — carnosic acid and rosmarinic acid are extracted for use in oils, meat products and supplements. Buyers sourcing for extraction specify volatile oil and carnosic acid rather than appearance alone.
Whole leaf, cut leaf and powder. Volatile oil and stem content confirmed per lot.

Container loading varies with product density and packaging — typically 18–24 MT per 20′ container for whole spices and less for low-density herbs and leaf. Final packing, palletisation and container plan are confirmed per order.
A complete export documentation package to support import clearance and buyer due diligence.
Quick answers to common buyer questions. For detailed technical data, please request our product brochure.
Our standard offer is dried leaf. Rosemary extract (carnosic acid standardised) is available through partner processors and can be quoted on request.
Cut leaf blends more evenly and disperses faster in seasoning systems; whole leaf is preferred where the herb is visible on the finished product or where maximum oil retention matters over long storage.
Our standard MOQ for Rosemary 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.
Yes. 200 g–500 g samples of Rosemary 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.
Production runs 25–30 working days from order confirmation, depending on grade, packing and current stock. Rosemary then moves to Qinzhou port, or the port you nominate; ocean transit is quoted per destination when freight is confirmed.
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.
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.
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 Rosemary 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.
Sourced through the same Yulin network with the same quality controls and export support.
