Markets
Pakistani pink salt reaches more than a hundred countries. We load at Karachi and deliver FOB or CIF to your named port, wherever that is — and we publish what your clearance will ask of you before you ask us.
We are based in Pakistan and we hold no stock anywhere else. There is no overseas office, no local warehouse and no agent — everything you receive arrives on the container you ordered. For a buyer that means one accountable counterparty and no margin stacked in between.

Shares are by export value. Datasets that count shipments rather than value put the United States higher, between a third and two fifths; both measures rank it first.
