Confirm the matcha before the order.

Use samples to assess suitability for your recipes. Clear harvest, cultivar and milling details support your choice.

Turn expected use into an order schedule.

Plan by model, volume and quarterly needs. Availability and lead times are confirmed with partner factories for each order.

Dispatched from Japan. Freight agreed separately.

Freight is quoted by destination and service. As an agricultural product, matcha may have different lead times between orders; the mutually confirmed schedule applies.

Annual purchasing plan

For buyers with ongoing demand who want to plan replenishment.

On signing

Advance 30%

Based on discounted annual product value, with models, quantities and the purchasing plan agreed.

Before each shipment

Credit 30%

Apply the advance to 30% of that shipment’s product value, drawing down the balance shipment by shipment.

Release for dispatch

Pay 70%

Pay the remaining product value and freight for that shipment, then dispatch follows the mutually confirmed arrangements.

If the advance balance is insufficient, only the available balance is applied. Freight is quoted separately. Supply, lead times and agreement terms require mutual confirmation.

Read the scope and change terms +

The agreement defines models, quantities, quarterly purchasing schedules and product unit prices. Freight is not fixed; volumes outside the plan and changes require separate agreement. There is no automatic renewal, and a new calendar year does not reset the contract term.

If the plan is not completed, previously granted 10% discounts are not reclaimed. Changes, refunds, rollover and approved stocking costs for unordered quantities follow the signed agreement. Unused advances are neither automatically forfeited nor unconditionally refundable.

A calendar-year route is also available: once confirmed regular purchases from 1 January to 31 December reach 100 kg, a 10% discount applies from the next order until year-end, without retroactive adjustments. The count restarts in January. Non-contract orders use the prices valid when ordered.
