Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers ask us.

Answers to common questions about sourcing Egyptian botanical ingredients from ONIC.

About ONIC

Who are you?

ONIC is an Egyptian producer and exporter of herbs, spices, medicinal and aromatic plants, and natural oils. We operate a facility for oil pressing and extraction, and supply botanical ingredients for bulk buyers.

Are you a manufacturer or a trader?

Both. We process and pack products in our facility and source herbs from farms and growing regions across Egypt, including Fayoum, Beni Suef, Minya and Assiut, according to the product and season.

Why source herbs from Egypt?

Egypt is an important origin for chamomile, basil, marjoram, mint, caraway, coriander, fennel, anise, hibiscus and other botanical crops. Climate, cultivation and harvest conditions can support desirable aroma, color and supply volumes; specific quality parameters depend on the crop and batch.

Products & Specifications

What products do you export?

Dried herbs and leaves, flowers, seeds and spices, medicinal and aromatic plants, cold-pressed oils, and essential and aromatic oils. Explore our full product catalogue for available items.

What cuts and forms are available?

Depending on the product: whole, crushed, cut, tea bag cut (TBC), sifted, rubbed or powdered. Custom mesh and cut sizes can be discussed on request.

Do you provide product specifications?

Product specifications are available for selected items. Ask our export team for the relevant technical data sheet and available batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA). Test scope depends on the product, batch and customer requirements.

Are your products organic?

Conventional products are available. If you require certified organic material, please ask us to confirm product availability and valid certification before ordering.

Can you meet EU pesticide (MRL) requirements?

Pesticide-residue testing can be discussed against the destination market requirements. Compliance with any specific MRL must be confirmed through relevant test results for the product and batch before shipment.

Are your herbs sterilized or treated?

Treatment and microbial-control options, including steam sterilization where feasible, can be discussed by product. Please specify your requirements so we can confirm the available process and documentation.

Quality & Certifications

What certifications do you have?

ONIC is ISO 22000 certified and follows HACCP food-safety principles. A copy of our valid ISO 22000 certificate can be provided on request.

How do you control quality?

Raw materials are inspected and processed according to product requirements, with cleaning, sorting and packing steps. Sampling, test parameters and acceptance limits can be agreed for the relevant order.

Can I get a sample before ordering?

Samples may be available depending on the product and stock. Our team will confirm sample quantity, cost, courier charges and whether a sample can be taken from the intended shipment batch.

Can I send my own inspector or use a third-party inspection?

Third-party inspection can be arranged by agreement. Please advise your preferred inspection agency, scope and timing before confirming an order.

Orders & Pricing

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Typically 1 metric ton per product, and mixed loads are accepted in a 20ft container. Smaller trial orders can be discussed.

Can I mix several products in one container?

Mixed-container orders may be possible where product compatibility, packing and logistical conditions allow. Send us your requested product list and quantities.

How do you price your products?

Pricing depends on product, grade, quantity, season, packing and delivery terms. Ask for an up-to-date quotation with your destination port and preferred Incoterm (such as FOB, CFR or CIF).

Why do prices change during the year?

Agricultural crop availability, harvest quality, weather, processing costs and market demand can affect prices during the year.

What are your payment terms?

30% advance by T/T and 70% against copy of shipping documents, or by irrevocable L/C at sight. Other terms can be agreed for regular customers.

Packing & Private Label

How are products packed?

Bulk herbs and spices can be quoted in suitable bags or lined cartons, depending on the item and destination. Oils may be available in drums, jerrycans or bottles. Exact materials and pack sizes are confirmed in the offer.

Do you offer private label or retail packing?

Private-label and retail packing options can be discussed according to product, order volume, packaging availability and labeling requirements.

Can products be palletized and fumigated?

Palletization and destination-specific treatment or certificates can be discussed when required and applicable.

Shipping & Documents

Which ports do you ship from?

Please share your destination and preferred departure port. Sea-freight options through Egyptian ports, including Alexandria, Port Said and Damietta, can be reviewed for the order.

How long does it take to prepare an order?

Usually 2–4 weeks after order confirmation and payment, depending on quantity and processing (sterilization, special cuts, lab tests).

What documents do you provide?

Commercial invoice, packing list and transport documents are arranged as relevant. Certificates of origin, phytosanitary documents, COAs and other shipment documents depend on the product, destination and applicable requirements.

Can I get reduced customs duties?

Preferential duty treatment may apply under trade agreements depending on product classification, rules of origin and the importing country. Please check with your customs broker; we can discuss applicable origin documentation.

Can you ship to my country?

Send us your destination country and port so we can check shipping possibilities, product restrictions and required documentation.

Storage & Shelf Life

What is the shelf life of your herbs?

Shelf life varies by botanical, processing, packaging and storage conditions. The relevant product specification or batch label provides the applicable period. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight unless otherwise specified.

When is the harvest season?

Harvest periods vary by crop and growing region. Chamomile is commonly a spring crop, while some herbs such as basil, marjoram and mint may have several cuts. Contact us for current crop availability.
