Frequently Asked Questions
Why Use Frozen Thai Basil Instead of Fresh?
Fresh Thai Basil has a shelf life of only 3-5 days and is extremely fragile during transport. Frozen Thai Basil provides year-round availability, consistent quality, zero waste, and significantly lower total cost compared to daily fresh procurement – particularly for Restaurant Chains and Food Manufacturers.
What Is the Minimum Order Quantity?
MOQ is one 20-foot Reefer Container (approximately 18-20 MT depending on product format). Mixed Containers combining multiple Frozen Vegetables are available for buyers who need product variety in a single shipment.
