When sourcing Iranian rice in bulk, two of the most important factors for international buyers, importers, and distributors are the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) and bulk pricing structure. Understanding how these work ensures smoother procurement, better planning, and cost-effective supply chain management. At Tamila Agrifood, we aim to provide clear policies, transparent pricing, and flexible terms to help wholesale buyers meet their market demand.

What is Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) in Rice Procurement?

The Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) refers to the lowest volume of rice that must be purchased in a single transaction. This is usually determined by:

•    Production capacity of the mills

•    Export packaging requirements (e.g., 25kg, 50kg, or 1-ton jumbo bags)

•    Shipping and container optimization (20ft or 40ft containers)

•    Customs and export documentation efficiency

For Iranian rice, MOQ typically ranges from one 20ft container (18–20 tons) up to 40ft containers (26–28 tons) depending on the variety.

Bulk Pricing for Iranian Rice

Wholesale buyers benefit from tiered bulk pricing, where the unit cost decreases as order size increases. At Tamila Agrifood, our bulk pricing model is based on:

•    Rice variety (Hashemi, Sadri, Tarom, Black Tail, Fajr, etc.)

•    Quality grade (premium, semi-premium, or standard)

•    Order volume (more containers = better unit pricing)

•    Contract type (spot purchase vs. long-term framework agreements)

•    Destination logistics (CIF, FOB, DDP options available)

For example, buyers ordering multiple 40ft containers often receive preferential rates compared to single-container shipments.

Why MOQ & Bulk Pricing Matter for Buyers?

Understanding MOQ and pricing helps international buyers to:

•    Plan better procurement budgets

•    Optimize logistics and reduce per-ton cost

•    Secure competitive advantage in their market

•    Align with government tenders, NGO contracts, and HORECA supply chains
