Buyers We Work With

Herbal Tea Company

A herbal tea company in Canada buys bulk herbs from Aile Herb for its own blending, in small batches. For a small tea brand, delivery timing is a production input in its own right — a blend cannot be packed or launched until the herbs arrive, so a confirmed delivery date carries as much weight as price. Aile Herb confirms timing at order stage and plans small-batch shipments around the buyer’s schedule.

Importer

An importer in Canada sources bulk herbs from Aile Herb in small quantities and compares landed cost across suppliers. Aile Herb quotes on that basis and supports the small, mixed-item shipments an importer relies on to keep a broad range in stock without over-committing to any single item.

Confidentiality is part of how we do business. All client names, order details, and commercial terms shown here are anonymized or generalized, and shared only with prior client consent. Full references and verifiable order history are available to serious buyers under NDA.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you cut the herb to our bag specification?

Send the bag size, the filling machine and the brew time; cut and sieve options are reviewed and, where suitable, held on file.

Do you supply small quantities?

Small-batch orders are a normal part of our tea-company business. The workable minimum depends on the item and the shipping method; we confirm it when you send your list.

Will I get a test report?

Every shipment comes with a batch COA. Pesticide and heavy-metal reports can be arranged to your requirement.

Can you supply herbs to a buyer-provided formula?

A buyer-provided product list or formula can be reviewed for ingredient availability, cut size, packing and feasibility. Formula development is not presented as a standard service.
