The saffron wholesale price depends on the selected grade, batch specifications, harvest conditions, product format, order quantity and packaging requirements. The prices shown on this page are base ex-factory prices in Iran. Shipping, insurance, customs duties and destination taxes are calculated separately where applicable.
Super Negin, Negin, Sargol and Pushal saffron have different characteristics and wholesale prices. Each batch may also differ in coloring strength, moisture level, thread size, uniformity, purity and other applicable laboratory results. For this reason, the final quotation is prepared according to the selected grade and the specifications of the available batch.
Approximately 90% of the world’s saffron originates from Iran, according to a Scientific Reports study published in December 2025. Consequently, harvest volume, weather conditions and the availability of specific Iranian saffron grades can influence the global saffron wholesale market. When the supply of a required grade or batch specification is limited, its wholesale price may change accordingly.
The saffron wholesale price per kg may vary according to the quantity ordered and the required product format. Saffron threads and saffron powder involve different processing requirements, while Instant Saffron Extract is quoted separately according to its format, specifications and intended application.
Standard bulk packaging and customized retail or private-label packaging involve different costs. Packaging material, unit size, labeling requirements and carton configuration are therefore considered when preparing the final bulk saffron price quotation.
Exchange-rate movements may affect export quotations. Shipping method, insurance, delivery terms and destination charges affect the buyer’s final landed cost but are calculated separately from the base ex-factory price.
