Buyer guide

A buyer’s checklist for spice specifications

Prepare the form, variety, quality, sample and packing details for a spice enquiry.

1. Name the spice and form

Be specific about the product you want quoted.

  • Give the spice name and variety, if required.
  • State whole, cut, powder or blend; give a blend brief if applicable.
  • For powder, share your requested grind or mesh specification.

2. Set out your quality brief

Send the parameters your buyer requires instead of relying only on a grade name.

  • List desired purity, moisture, colour or other product parameters.
  • Attach the buyer’s specification or requested test format if available.
  • State any requested residue, microbiological or other testing by name.

3. Define the sample review

Say what you need a sample to help you review.

  • Identify the product, specification and intended quantity for the sample enquiry.
  • Provide the delivery destination and any requested sample documentation.
  • Agree availability, sample charges and courier arrangements before dispatch.

4. Describe the pack

Distinguish the product quantity from the size of each pack.

  • Specify bulk or retail packs and weight per pack.
  • Share material preference, outer packing and label artwork.
  • Name the destination and any buyer-supplied labelling or document requirements.

5. Complete the commercial brief

Add the purchase details needed to review your request.

  • Give quantity, unit, preferred origin and required timeline.
  • Ask for the offered specification and any differences to be stated in writing.
  • Confirm price, minimum quantity, testing and delivery terms for the actual enquiry.
