Supplying Cornmint Oil (Mentha arvensis) to Ethiopia

Ethiopia is landlocked. We ship by sea from Nhava Sheva or Mundra to Djibouti, Djibouti, about 690 km from the main buying centre, then onward by road or rail. Sea transit to the gateway port is typically 12–22 days.

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

Cornmint Oil (Mentha arvensis) is used in menthol crystallisation, oral care and confectionery flavours, balms and inhalants and fragrance. Imports into Ethiopia usually involve Ethiopian Food and Drug Authority (EFDA); we provide the specifications, COAs and certificates your file needs.
