Product overview

Cost-effective unfermented beans collected from smallholders across East Java. Sun-dried, cleaned, and graded for industrial processing: cocoa butter pressing, cake, and powder applications where fermentation profile is not critical. Available in jute bags or bulk container loading.

Quality and processing

Unfermented beans are collected from smallholders across East Java, sun-dried to 7.5% moisture or below, then cleaned and screened at our warehouse. Grading focuses on moisture, foreign matter, and defect counts (mouldy, slaty, and insect-damaged limits per the specification sheet) rather than fermentation profile, keeping quality consistent for industrial use.

Applications and buyers

Designed for cocoa butter pressing, cake, and powder production where fermentation flavour is not critical. A practical choice for industrial processors and trade houses buying on specification and price.

Packing, MOQ and shipping

Available in 60 kg jute bags or loose bulk loading, from 5 MT partial loads (subject to consolidation schedules) up to multi-container contracts. Ships from Surabaya under FOB, CFR, or CIF with full export documentation. LCL trial lots are available for qualified first-time buyers on request.

Frequently asked questions

Ordering, samples, shipping, and payment, answered by our export desk.

What is your minimum order quantity?

For fermented grades the minimum is one 20 ft container (about 13 MT). For unfermented Sulawesi and Java beans we can arrange partial loads from 5 MT, and LCL trial lots are available for qualified first-time buyers, subject to consolidation schedules.

Do you provide samples before ordering?

Yes. We courier 500 g – 2 kg samples of current lots, including cut-test photos and moisture readings. Sample costs are credited against your first order.

Which ports and incoterms do you work with?

We ship from Makassar and Surabaya under FOB, CFR, or CIF terms to most major ports. Every shipment includes phytosanitary certificate, fumigation certificate, certificate of origin, and full loading documentation.

What payment terms do you accept?

Standard terms are 30% advance with order confirmation and 70% against copy of bill of lading. Irrevocable LC at sight is accepted for established buyers and larger contracts.

Which certifications can you supply?

Selected lots carry Rainforest Alliance, Organic, Fairtrade, and Halal (BPJPH) certification. Our Makassar processing and export warehousing facility operates under ISO 22000 and HACCP. Certification availability is listed on each product page.

Can you provide third-party inspection and laboratory COAs?

Yes. We can arrange SGS or equivalent pre-shipment inspection at the loading port, and ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory certificates covering moisture, bean count, cut-test appearance, and microbiology on request. Inspection costs are quoted separately and agreed before booking.

Can you run a custom fermentation programme?

Yes, for wholesale buyers. We box-ferment against a written protocol (day count, turning schedule, target cut-test, drying moisture) booked on a named cooperative harvest, starting at one 20 ft container (about 13 MT). Trial containers are available before a season contract. This is a container programme, not single-bag or micro-lot supply.

Do you offer OEM or private-label packing?

Yes. On recurring wholesale contracts we stencil buyer marks, print custom lot codes, and issue packing lists to your bag-mark requirements while keeping our legal entity on the commercial invoice unless otherwise agreed. Minimums stay at our standard wholesale floors. Send artwork and language requirements with your quote request; programme details are on the services page.
