B2B FAQ

Common Questions from Ingredient Buyers

MOQ, certifications, lead times, documentation — the answers procurement, QA, and formulation teams ask most.

What is your minimum order quantity?

Our standard MOQ is 1 kg per SKU. We stock 1 kg, 5 kg, and 25 kg pack sizes for immediate dispatch from our Newark, NJ warehouse. Pallet orders (100+ kg) are available with volume pricing — contact us for a quote.

Are your extracts from fruiting bodies or mycelium?

100% fruiting bodies. We have never offered mycelium-on-grain products. All extracts are 4:1 hot water extracted from the fruiting body only. This is the part with documented beta-glucan content and the standard used in clinical research.

Do you provide Certificates of Analysis with every order?

Yes, always. Every lot ships with a full CoA covering: beta-glucan %, polysaccharide content, heavy metals (As, Cd, Pb, Hg), microbial load (TPC, yeast, mould, coliforms), moisture content, and particle size. CoAs are produced by ISO 17025-accredited third-party laboratories.

What certifications do your products carry?

All products are: USDA Certified Organic (NOP compliant), GMP Certified (FDA 21 CFR Part 111), HACCP Certified, and third-party lab tested per lot. Select SKUs also carry Kosher (OU) certification. Non-GMO attestation letters available on request.

What are your standard lead times?

Orders up to 25 kg typically ship within 2–3 weeks from our Newark, NJ warehouse. Pallet orders (100+ kg) require 4–6 weeks depending on available lot stock. We can often fulfil urgent smaller orders faster — contact us with your timeline.

Can you provide samples before we commit to a bulk order?

Yes. We provide 50–100g samples for R&D and QA evaluation. Standard turnaround for sample requests is 5–7 business days. Samples ship with a full CoA. We may charge a nominal sample fee for rare or high-demand species — ask when you request.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We regularly ship to the EU, UK, Canada, Australia, and Southeast Asia. Full export documentation is handled from our side: Certificate of Origin, phytosanitary documentation where required, and CITES compliance where applicable. DDP and DAP Incoterms available.

Can you do custom blends or formulations?

Yes — through our R&D & Custom Formulation service. We can develop proprietary multi-species blends, adjust extraction ratios to hit specific bioactive targets, and produce to your spec sheet. Minimum development batch is 5 kg. See our Custom Blends page for the full process.

What is your policy on supply continuity?

We maintain 6 months of forward inventory on all core SKUs. Our 30-year QingYuan partnership means we have committed crop allocations that protect your supply chain. If a spec change or harvest shortfall affects a lot, we notify customers at least 60 days in advance.

Do you have private label or white-label options?

Yes. We offer full private label services including formulation development, co-manufacturing, packaging, and compliance documentation. From brief to finished product typically takes 6–8 weeks. See our Private Label page or contact us to discuss your project.
