Frequently Asked Questions

Have detailed questions about our premium Olibanum grades, essential oil compliance, or logical documentation? We're here to help you succeed.

What is the largest Frankincense export company in Ethiopia?

+

As a specialized entity established in 2024, our focus is not on being the largest by raw volume, but on being the most reliable by quality and specialization. We aim to set the market standard for premium, crystalline-sorted Olibanum.

What regions in Ethiopia do you source your Frankincense from?

+

We primarily source the premium Boswellia papyrifera variety from the Amhara region of Northern Ethiopia, Tigray, Beneshangul-Gumuz, and the Ogaden region. We partner directly with local smallholders who adhere strictly to sustainable forestry and Good Agricultural Practices (GAP).

Do you offer different Frankincense varieties, and how do they differ in size?

+

Yes. We specialize in the Ethiopian Boswellia papyrifera variety (Etan). Our sorting process separates tears into specific size grades: Grade 1A (particles size greater than 10 mm), Grade 1B (particles 10 mm down to 5 mm), Grade 2 (particles 5 mm down to 2.5 mm), and Grade 3 (particles less than 2.5 mm). These are completely bark-free, ideal for distillation and luxury incense. We also provide Grade 4 (mixed sizes stuck to bark for industrial extraction) and Grade 5 (byproduct bark).

How do you ensure the quality of your exported products?

+

Quality is ensured through multi-stage sorting to achieve crystalline purity and a 100% bark-free guarantee. Our entire process, including separation and final labeling, is supervised by a regional food health official to maintain strict phytosanitary standards.

Are your products ethically sourced and sustainably produced?

+

Yes. Our supply chain is built on partnerships with smallholder farmers who manage sustainable forest plots. Our commitment to fair, direct-to-origin pricing reflects our dedication to the communities that sustain this precious resource.

What certifications do you hold for your exported products?

+

We provide a complete document set for every container load, including: Phytosanitary Certificates issued by the Ministry of Agriculture, Certificate of Origin, and Quality & Weight Certificates issued by an independent inspection body (such as SGS or Bureau Veritas) at loading.

How do you handle the shipping process for international orders?

+

We manage the entire export process via our strategic logistics network: from our sorting and climate-controlled storage hubs in Bahir Dar/Addis Ababa to the Port of Djibouti (DJJIB). Lead time from contract signing to vessel loading is typically 15 to 25 days.
