If you're searching for Nigerian hibiscus flower exports, you're likely a serious buyer - whether you’re blending teas, formulating beverages, or sourcing for bulk natural ingredients. But hibiscus sourcing today is riddled with uncertainty:


  • Price instability

  • Questionable quality from unreliable origins

  • Export bans or delays from some major producing countries


You need consistent access to high-grade hibiscus, competitive pricing, and reliable export support. That's exactly where Nigeria comes in.

  • Higher prices from middlemen

  • Disrupted operations due to unreliable sourcing

  • Responsive supply chains and competitive costs



Why Buyers Prefer Nigerian Hibiscus Flower Exports


  • High anthocyanin levels for vivid red coloration

  • Sun-dried, low-moisture content (12–15%)

  • Organic potential and chemical-free farming in many regions

  • Flexible MOQ (starting from 10MT)

20-foot container

10–12 metric tons (MT)

Packed in 25kg or 50kg polypropylene or jute bags

40-foot container

20–24 metric tons (MT)

Less common due to space vs. weight limits

Note. The most commonly used is a 20-foot container, especially for bulk orders. Moisture content (target: 12–15%) and compression during bagging impact exact volume. Buyers often prefer 25kg bags for ease of handling and repackaging.
