Supplying L-Menthol Crystals – Rice to Botswana

Botswana is landlocked. We ship by sea from Nhava Sheva or Mundra to Maputo, Mozambique, about 973 km from the main buying centre, then onward by road or rail. Sea transit to the gateway port is typically 18–26 days.

UN Comtrade does not record direct Indian exports of menthol to Botswana for 2022–2025, so most material reaches buyers there through traders and regional distributors. Buying direct from the manufacturer removes that layer.

L-Menthol Crystals – Rice is used in chewing gum and pressed mints, tobacco and filter capsules, pharmaceutical granulation and dry blends and premixes.
