For bulk orders, we supply fresh Indonesian mangosteen (manggis) by full reefer container — typically 10 to 25 MT per FCL, packed in 5, 8 or 10 kg cartons. FOB runs roughly USD 2-3.5/kg by grade and season as of 2026, with lower-grade lots from USD 1.5 and China-protocol Super up to USD 3.8/kg.
High-tonnage buyers need three things settled before a single carton loads: how much fruit, at what grade, and on which sailing. This page maps the volume tiers, packing, indicative FOB and the booking steps so you can price a container quickly and lock a slot before the season tightens.
What counts as a bulk mangosteen order?
Bulk starts where a single buyer takes a committed volume instead of a sample box. For us that means a minimum order of 1-3 metric tonnes (MT) — the typical MOQ — scaling to a full reefer container load of roughly 10-25 MT. Below a tonne we point buyers to trial pricing; at container scale you unlock the packing, cold chain and documentation built for export.
Mangosteen (manggis, Garcinia mangostana) is perishable and seasonal, so bulk planning is really harvest planning. Indonesia’s national season runs November to March, regionally variable across West Java (Jabar), West Sumatra (Sumbar), North Sumatra (Sumut) and Bali. Committing volume early in that window secures grade; late requests compete with a spiking market — Bali’s mangosteen exports to China jumped several-fold in the month before Lunar New Year in early 2026, according to trade reporting at the time. China is the #1 destination, with Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam and some Middle East and Europe buyers behind it.
What does bulk mangosteen cost by volume and grade?
Use volume to plan packing and freight; use grade to plan price. The tiers below show how tonnage maps to container mode and carton size.
| Volume tier | Container / mode | Typical carton | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| MOQ 1-3 MT | LCL or part-load | 5 kg | Market test, first trial |
| 10-14 MT | One 20ft reefer FCL | 8 or 10 kg | Single-buyer full container |
| 18-25 MT | 40ft high-cube reefer FCL | 10 kg | Wholesale / distributor volume |
| 25 MT+ weekly | Multi-container program in season | 10 kg | Long-term supply agreement |
Price is set by grade and fruit-size, not a fixed per-tonne discount. Larger committed programs can improve freight and packing economics, but the FOB band stays linked to grade and season. All figures below are FOB indikatif per 2026 and move with the panen, grade and season — treat them as a starting point, and confirm final quote against grade, size, destination and MOQ.
| Grade | Fruit count | Profile | FOB USD/kg (as of 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|
| FAQ / lower | 15-20 fruit/kg (small) | Value tier, minor blemish tolerance | 1.5-2.5 |
| Standard export A | Mid count | Clean, export-ready | 2.2-3.0 |
| Premium / Super | ~10 fruit/kg (large) | Large, blemish-free, China-protocol spec | 2.8-3.8 (rare lots ~4) |
The working range sits around USD 2-3.5/kg FOB. Note that China wholesale landed price runs higher than these figures — that landed number is not our FOB quote.
How is bulk fruit graded and packed?
Grading is by fruit count per kilogram. Super grade runs about 10 fruit/kg — large, heavy fruit with a clean calyx; small grades run 15-20 fruit/kg. For China-bound lots the cosmetic standard is strict: fruit must not be rotten or cracked, latex (getah) staining is minimised, and the fruit must be free of target pests — fruit flies, mealybugs, ants and mites.
- Cartons: 5, 8 or 10 kg, ventilated for cold-chain airflow
- Cold chain: pre-cooling at the packhouse, then reefer from farm through to destination port
- Packhouse: registered by OKKPD (regional) and verified under the agreed export protocol
- Orchards: registered with Barantan under SOP, GAP and IPM practices
We cite quality claims — brix, size, OPTK-free status — only from batch inspection or a COA. We do not guarantee any shipment will pass China protocol, quarantine or customs; those clearances rest with the authorities and the batch on the day.
How does a bulk mangosteen order work?
- Share your spec. Send destination, target grade and size, tonnage and packing through the quote form — set the cargo field to your target tonnage — or message WhatsApp directly.
- Get an indicative FOB. We return pricing and harvest availability within 24 working hours, matched to your grade and shipment window.
- Confirm the lot. Lock grade, MOQ and sailing date; we align orchard supply and a packhouse slot against the season.
- Grading and packing. Fruit is pre-cooled, size-graded and cartoned at the registered packhouse.
- Documents prepared. Phytosanitary/quarantine certificate (OPTK-free), GAP, invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and OKKPD packhouse approval.
- Load and sail. Reefer loaded and shipped from Tanjung Perak (Surabaya) or Tanjung Priok (Jakarta), with Denpasar logistics for Bali-origin fruit, tracked to your destination port.
Which routes and ports do we ship from?
| Origin ports | Destination ports | Transit mode |
|---|---|---|
| Tanjung Perak (Surabaya) | Shanghai, Shenzhen | Reefer FCL cold chain |
| Tanjung Priok (Jakarta) | Guangzhou, Hong Kong | Reefer FCL cold chain |
| Denpasar logistics (Bali origin) | Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Ho Chi Minh | Reefer FCL / consolidated |
For repeat buyers who want fixed weekly or monthly tonnage across the season, ask about a [long-term mangosteen supply agreement](/long-term-mangosteen-supply/) — it reserves orchard capacity and a packing window ahead of peak demand.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order for a bulk mangosteen shipment?
Our typical MOQ is 1-3 metric tonnes, which suits a market-test or LCL part-load in 5 kg cartons. Most bulk buyers move to a full reefer container — roughly 10-25 MT — to unlock better freight per kilo and a dedicated cold chain. We confirm the workable minimum against grade and harvest availability.
Can you fill a full reefer container with one grade?
Yes, when harvest supports it. A 40ft high-cube reefer holds roughly 18-25 MT, and a single Super or standard-A grade lot is possible during peak season, November to March. Off-peak or for very large fruit, we may blend closely-matched sizes to fill the box — we flag any blend before loading.
How far ahead should bulk buyers book during peak season?
Book as early as you can. Demand around Lunar New Year is intense — Bali’s exports to China rose several-fold before the 2026 holiday — so peak-season slots and Super grade sell out first. Committing tonnage weeks ahead lets us reserve orchard supply and a packhouse window; last-minute requests compete on price and grade.
Do bulk FOB prices drop at higher tonnage?
Not as a fixed discount ladder. FOB is driven by grade, fruit-size and season, so a container of lower-grade fruit (USD 1.5-2.5/kg as of 2026) sits below Super (USD 2.8-3.8/kg) regardless of volume. Larger, committed programs can improve freight and packing economics, and we quote final terms once grade, size and destination are set.
Can you consolidate mangosteen with other tropical fruit in one container?
For mangosteen we recommend a dedicated reefer, because cold-chain temperature and ethylene sensitivity differ between fruits and mixing can shorten shelf life. Where volumes are small we can discuss consolidation with compatible produce under one booking, but each item still needs its own phytosanitary paperwork and grading. We assess this case by case.
