South Africa imports over $36M of modified starch annually, predominantly from Thailand, USA and Netherlands. Argentina and Brazil produce the same certified grades at competitive prices, with zero import tariff and direct shipping to Durban.
SOURCE THIS INGREDIENTArgentina and Brazil are among the world's largest corn processors, producing modified starch grades used across the global food industry. Yet SA manufacturers continue to source from distant origins at higher landed costs.
The zero tariff on HS 3505.10 means there is no duty barrier. The gap is purely one of market connections, and that is what JMR bridges.
We work with certified Mercosur producers holding FSSC 22000, ISO 9001, Halal and Kosher approvals, with direct export routes to Durban.
