Market Update - October 2026 | Abbott Blackstone International

Organic Ginger and Turmeric – Slow But Steady Rise in Prices

India remains a dominant supplier despite reduced production in recent seasons. The limited availability of certified material has pushed prices up little by little and with qualified organic supply remaining scarce, most offers that reach the market are being absorbed quickly. We currently have organic ginger powder and organic turmeric powder available for prompt delivery.

Organic Moringa Leaf Powder: Good Supply But be Watchful

Our recent efforts to build and encourage more growers of organic moringa trees especially in Africa has borne fruit and after a few years of scarcity we now have substantial and reliable supply. However, several producers had to be disqualified. Moringa is sensitive during any processing stage, and we could see this occurring even in Europe e.g. while being encapsulated. We have taken measures to secure our (and your) supply by carefully sterilising organic moringa leaf powder to ensure maximum food safety.

Call us now to book your next volumes with peace of mind.

Conventional Psyllium Pricing at a Historic Low

Due to the Indian national organic authority’s suspension of multiple certification bodies and smallholder farmer groups, many organic smallholder farmers in India have seen the decertification of their organically grown psyllium. Farmers have no other choice but to sell it now as conventional which has flooded the market and pushed conventional pricing to an almost historic low. If you have any requirements for conventional psyllium seed, husk and husk powder, now is the time to buy and take advantage of the current abundant supply, excellent quality and very lean prices.

Organic Ashwagandha Powder Available Prompt!

Many Indian producers will offer “ashwagandha powder,” but often it’s the whole plant (roots + leaves), which dilutes potency. The key active compound, withanolides, is found primarily in the root and mostly in thick, mature roots. We source only pure organic mature ashwagandha roots which are then thoroughly cleaned, sterilised, dried, ground into a fine mesh and then diligently sieved to remove impurities. We have EU organic certified ashwagandha powder in stock at our Hamburg warehouse and available prompt!
