Bulk salt you can trace back to the rock it came from

Buying salt is simple until it isn't delivered the way you expected. The weight comes up short. The labels don't match your country's rules. The bank rejects the documents because one line doesn't match the Letter of Credit. Suddenly a low-margin product is eating your profit, and your customers are sitting on stock you can't release.

Pure Salts is a Pakistani edible salt exporter built around one idea: the order you place is the order you get. Same weight, same packaging, same paperwork, every time. We supply importers, distributors and brands who shouldn't have to keep checking up on their salt supplier.

Who We Supply

Salt moves through a lot of different businesses, and each one needs something slightly different from its supplier:

• Importers and distributors who need a reliable, repeat bulk and retail salt supply for regional networks. For you, consistency is the key — the fifth container has to match the first.
• Trading companies and wholesalers who buy on volume and price and sell on to retailers, food service and restaurants. You need sharp quotes, tight specifications, and documents your bank won't query.
• Supermarket and retail chains looking for shelf-ready 500 g pouches, packed in cartons that are easy to receive, store and stock — see our Edible Salts range.
• Food processors and manufacturers who use salt as a production ingredient and need bulk bags that arrive clean, sealed and ready to use.
• Private labels who want to sell salt under their own name without running a packing operation themselves.

Whichever group you're in, the terms are clear, the specification is confirmed up front, and one team is accountable for the whole order — including specialty lines like our Kitchen Products.

Edible Salt Packed the Way You Sell It

Bulk salt bags — 25 kg and 50 kg. Distributed to distributors, wholesalers, food manufacturers and catering suppliers. Packed to survive long sea journeys, loading and unloading at port, and stacking in warehouses. Most buyers start here when sourcing wholesale edible salt for repackaging, food production or onward distribution.

Retail salt pouches — 500 g. Household-sized packets in master cartons that are easy to count, store and distribute, ready for the shelf without repackaging.

Private label salt. Build your own salt brand without building a factory. We fill your design, your text and your market's labelling requirements — you own the shelf, we handle production and export. It's one of the fastest ways for a distributor to move from reselling someone else's product to owning a product line with its own margin.

Every specification is confirmed in your Proforma Invoice before production starts — there's no gap between what you approved and what gets loaded.

Start With 1 Ton. Scale to Full Containers.

Most salt exporters won't talk to you until you commit to a full container. That forces new importers to either over-stock before they know how fast it will sell, or choose a cheaper supplier to offset the risk.

We set our minimum order at 1 metric ton, shipped as LCL (Less than Container Load) — enough to test a new market, try a new pack size, or launch an own-brand product without tying up capital, whether that's bulk edible salt or a finished item like our Himalayan Salt Bath. As volumes grow, you move up to FCL (Full Container Load):

• 20 ft container: 20–25 metric tons
• 40 ft container: loaded to the shipping line's weight limit

LCL freight is calculated on CBM or weight, whichever is greater — so what you ship is what you're quoted.

Packing and Loading Standards

Salt is moisture-sensitive, and a two-month sea journey tests every bag — true whether it's bulk sacks or finished pieces like Salt Candle Holders. What happens at the loading point matters as much as the salt itself:

• Specification first. Pack size, bag type, labelling and carton markings are agreed in writing before production — our team packs to that document, not to memory.
• Weighed and certified. Every shipment is weighed and a Weight Certificate is issued, so what's on the invoice is what's in the container.
• Sealed for the journey. Containers are sealed after loading, and the seal number is recorded on your shipping documents. An intact seal on arrival confirms the cargo wasn't opened in transit.
• Independent inspection on request. Pre-shipment inspection by a third party can be arranged at your expense if your LC requires it.

Ordering Process: 5 Easy Steps

1. Send your enquiry. Tell us the product, pack size, quantity and delivery location.
2. Receive your quotation. We quote on the Incoterm that suits your business, with freight calculated for your route.
3. Confirm the Proforma Invoice. Price, payment terms, quantity and labelling are all in writing.
4. Production and loading. Production begins once your advance or LC is received. Your salt is filled, weighed, loaded and sealed to the confirmed specification.
5. Shipping and documents. You receive the Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin and Weight Certificate, prepared to match your payment terms.

No hidden steps, and no surprises when the container arrives.

Flexible Shipping Terms

Some buyers run their own freight forwarders; others want salt delivered to their warehouse with everything paid. We quote on all Incoterms 2020:

• EXW (Ex Works): you collect from our warehouse with your own logistics partner.
• FOB (Free On Board): we load the goods onto the vessel at the port of departure.
• CFR and CIF: we arrange freight to your port of discharge, and insure it under CIF.
• DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): we handle freight, import duties and taxes through to your named address.

Sea transit normally takes 55 to 65 days, depending on destination port, route and vessel schedule — confirmed ahead of your order so you can plan stock levels with confidence.

Payment Terms That Work in Your Region

International trade runs on trust, and trust starts with payment terms both sides can rely on. We accept:

• Telegraphic Transfer (TT) in advance
• TT in part, with the balance against a copy of the Bill of Lading
• Letters of Credit at sight or usance, from a bank acceptable to us
• Documents against Payment (D/P), for approved buyers

Accepted currencies: USD, EUR, GBP, AED and SAR. When you pay by LC, our documents are drawn line by line to match your credit terms — whether the order is bulk salt or something like Animal Salt, one mismatch can cost you a bank fee and delay cargo release, and avoiding that is our job, not yours.

Serving Buyers Across Four Regions

• GCC — distributors and wholesalers across the Gulf rely on a steady supply of bulk and retail salt. We ship on routes you already serve and quote in AED and SAR.
• Asia — from food processors to regional distributors, with flexible order sizes: LCL for trial orders, full containers for regular supply.
• United Kingdom — full export documentation, GBP pricing and private label packing suited to UK retail requirements.
• Europe — CIF or DDP ordering with EUR pricing and written terms covering risk, ownership and claims.

Why Importers Choose Pure Salts

• One accountable team. Packaging, documentation and shipping are handled in-house — you're not chasing three different companies for one answer.
• Weight you can check. Every delivery comes with a Weight Certificate and a recorded seal number.
• Terms in writing. Ownership, transit risk and claims are set out in our Terms and Conditions before you pay. If there's a shortage or packing error on our part, we replace the quantity or issue a credit note.
• Honest timelines. We'd rather give you a realistic arrival date than a quick promise that leaves your shelves empty.
• Built for growth. Start at 1 ton. Move to full containers. Add a private label when you're ready — supply scales with your business.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?
The minimum order is 1 metric ton, shipped as LCL. Larger orders ship in 20 ft or 40 ft containers.

What's the difference between LCL and FCL?
LCL (Less than Container Load) means your shipment shares a container with other deliveries — suited to smaller orders. FCL (Full Container Load) dedicates a whole container to your shipment, generally cheaper per ton at higher quantities.

Which countries do you export to?
We supply buyers across the GCC, Asia, the United Kingdom and Europe. If your country isn't listed, ask and we'll verify the route and freight.

What's the delivery time?
Sea transit typically takes 55 to 65 days, depending on destination port, route and vessel schedule. Production time is confirmed in your Proforma Invoice.

Can you pack salt under my own brand?
Yes — private label packing to your design and your market's labelling requirements, confirmed before production starts.

What are your payment methods?
TT advance, partial advance with the balance against the Bill of Lading, Letters of Credit at sight or usance, and D/P for approved buyers, in USD, EUR, GBP, AED or SAR.

What documents come with each shipment?
A Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin and Weight Certificate. Other certificates can be requested.

Can I arrange a pre-shipment inspection?
Yes — third-party pre-shipment inspection can be arranged at the buyer's expense and built into your LC requirements.

What happens if my order arrives short?
If our loading causes a shortage, we replace the amount in your next shipment or issue a credit note, as set out in our Terms and Conditions. Claims need photos, an independent survey report and evidence the container seal was unbroken.

Do you deliver DDP?
Yes — under DDP we manage freight, import duties and taxes through to your named address.

How should I store salt after delivery?
Keep it in a dry, covered, ventilated area, off the floor and away from walls. Good storage protects salt against moisture and caking — the same rule applies to retail lines like Season Salt.
