Designed for commercial buyers

One rice desk for four buyer profiles.

We work from a complete buyer brief. Supplier identity and sensitive documents are shared privately with qualified buyers, subject to permission and agreed confidentiality arrangements.

I

Importers

Container programs with destination, payment, compliance and document requirements defined from the start.

D

Distributors

Wholesale grades and pack formats for repeat regional distribution.

F

Food service

Specification-led supply for hospitality, catering and institutional demand.

PL

Private label

OEM feasibility, artwork, label language and setup reviewed after volume qualification.

Start with your application

Choose by application.

A grade name is the starting point. Define what your customer or production process needs, then compare the proposed specification and sample on that basis.

Fragrant rice enquiries

For Pathumthani Jasmine or Thai Hom Mali, state the required product identity, origin evidence, aroma and cooked-texture criteria. Confirm the proposed grade and assess the sample against your own benchmark rather than treating the two names as interchangeable.

Review fragrant reference grades →

White rice enquiries

For a whole-grain presentation or a specified broken-rice requirement, define the acceptable grain and broken-kernel limits and the measurement basis. Review the 5% and 25% naming caution below before agreeing a contractual specification.

Check the tolerance caution →

Parboiled rice enquiries

Describe your cooking equipment, batch size, desired texture and holding or reheating process. Ask for the relevant specification and assess a proposed parboiled sample under those conditions before product approval.

Describe your application →
Compare samples on the same basis. Record the sample identity, water ratio, cooking equipment, preparation time and any holding conditions. Agree the acceptance criteria for appearance, texture and other required checks with the proposed supplier. A successful trial does not replace lot documentation.
Reference specifications · Thailand

Five grades with specifications on file.

Buyer questions

Before you request a quotation.

Why are no prices shown publicly?

Rice prices and freight change with grade, crop, packing, allocation, port, payment structure and validity. TSARA issues a dated transaction-specific indication after receiving a complete buyer brief.

What is the normal minimum order?

The existing route reference is one 20 ft container per selected grade and pack, approximately 24–25 MT subject to stowage. State your trial and repeat quantities and request confirmation of the current minimum and loading plan; this reference is not a confirmed offer.

Can you quote CFR or CIF?

Yes. The route, carrier, validity, cargo insurance and included/excluded charges must first be confirmed in writing.

Can you disclose the supplier?

Supplier identity and sensitive records may be shared privately after buyer qualification, supplier permission and agreement on confidentiality and the transaction scope. No protection agreement is assumed to be in place.

Can you provide private label?

Private label is assessed after grade, pack, market, artwork, volume and repeat-program requirements are defined. It is not assumed available until confirmed in writing.

Who signs the sales contract?

For first low-risk transactions, the qualified exporter should normally remain seller and invoice the buyer. TSARA coordinates the account and transaction according to the agreed scope.
