Black Seed Oil Wholesale Pricing Guide 2026
A buyer-facing overview of pricing factors, volume tiers, and landed cost considerations for wholesale black seed oil sourced EXW Norcross, Georgia, in USD.
BlackSeedSource supplies wholesale cold-pressed black seed oil from its Norcross, Georgia US warehouse (FDA Registered Facility #14244282908), with manufacturing in Hatay, Turkey. All pricing is quoted in USD on an EXW (Ex Works) Norcross basis, meaning the price is at the warehouse and the buyer arranges onward freight. This guide explains the pricing factors, volume tier structure, and landed cost considerations buyers should account for when requesting a quote.
As market context, cold-pressed Turkish black seed oil in bulk typically trades between approximately $18 and $35 per kg — the lower end applying to Industrial-tier volumes (1,000+ kg) and the upper end to Standard-tier orders (25–199 kg) with premium TQ grades. Exact per-kilogram pricing is not published on this page because it varies by volume, packaging format, and order frequency. Contact the supply team directly for a current price sheet aligned to your volume requirements. Teams comparing tiers should also review current wholesale pricing and MOQs in the main program overview.
Factors That Affect Black Seed Oil Wholesale Price
Wholesale black seed oil price per kilogram is not a single universal figure. Multiple supply and market factors influence what buyers pay at different order scales. Understanding these factors helps buyers structure their quote requests more effectively and interpret supplier pricing differences accurately.
- Volume (weight per order): The single largest driver of per-kilogram price. Higher volumes unlock lower per-unit cost due to production efficiency and reduced per-batch overhead. See volume tiers below.
- Packaging format: Bulk drums have the lowest per-kilogram price. Pre-filled private label bottles include filling, capping, labeling, and packaging labor, which increases the per-unit price significantly.
- Quality grade: Cold-pressed, solvent-free, third-party COA-verified oil commands a higher price than commodity-grade oil processed with heat or solvents. The production cost difference is real and documented.
- Incoterms: EXW Norcross pricing excludes freight, insurance, and import duties. CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight) pricing for international buyers includes these costs and is typically quoted separately.
- Order frequency: Buyers with established recurring purchase programs may qualify for preferred pricing structures. Contact the supply team to discuss program terms.
- Currency and payment terms: All BlackSeedSource wholesale pricing is in USD. Payment terms vary by buyer profile and order history.
- Market conditions: Black seed oil pricing is influenced by Nigella sativa harvest yields in Turkey, global vegetable oil market benchmarks, and logistics costs. Prices may change quarterly. Request a current price sheet for the most accurate figures.

Bulk Drums vs. Private Label Bottles: Cost Comparison
The cost difference between bulk drums and private label bottled formats is significant and should be factored into buyer margin calculations before requesting quotes.
| Factor | Bulk Drums | Private Label Bottles |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing basis | Per kilogram (USD, EXW Norcross) | Per unit (includes fill, cap, label) |
| Lowest available format | 25 kg (~55 lbs) drum | 100 unit minimum (MOQ) |
| Buyer responsibility | In-house filling, labeling, packaging | Ready to receive or sell-through |
| Label / branding | Buyer provides | Buyer artwork, supplier applies |
| Typical use case | Manufacturers, formulators, repackagers | Brands, Amazon sellers, distributors |
Bulk drum buyers typically operate their own filling and packaging operations, or work with a contract packager. Private label bottled programs are suitable for brands that want a turnkey supply solution with finished product ready for sale. Contact the team to discuss which format fits your operational model.
Landed Cost Considerations for US Buyers (EXW Norcross)
EXW Norcross pricing is the starting point, not the total cost. US buyers sourcing from the BlackSeedSource Norcross warehouse should account for the following additional costs when calculating landed cost per kilogram:
- Outbound freight (Norcross to buyer): LTL (less-than-truckload) for drum orders, parcel/courier for smaller volumes. Freight cost varies by distance and carrier rates.
- Pallet or crate fees: For drum shipments, pallet materials and strapping are a variable per-shipment cost.
- Receiving and inspection labor: Internal cost at buyer's facility for COA verification and inventory intake.
- Insurance: Transit insurance is buyer's responsibility under EXW terms. Typically 1%-2% of cargo value.
- Payment processing fees: Wire transfer or ACH fees vary by bank. Factor into unit cost calculation for accurate margin modeling.
For international buyers sourcing from the Norcross warehouse for re-export, export documentation, customs brokerage, and onward freight from Norcross are additional considerations. International buyers may also evaluate direct-import pricing from the Turkey manufacturing facility for large volumes -- contact the team to compare both options.
