Industrial Clusters: Where to Source China Bulk Sweet Tea Extract
SourcifyChina Sourcing Intelligence Report: China Bulk Sweet Tea Extract Market Analysis
Prepared for Global Procurement Managers | Q3 2026
Confidential – For Client Internal Use Only
Executive Summary
The global demand for natural sweeteners has accelerated China’s production of bulk sweet tea extract (primarily Luo Han Guo [Monk Fruit, Siraitia grosvenorii] and Stevia rebaudiana extracts, commonly mislabeled as “sweet tea extract” in B2B contexts). China dominates 70% of global supply, with Guangxi as the epicenter for Luo Han Guo and Jiangsu/Shandong for Stevia. Critical risks include inconsistent active compound standardization (e.g., Mogroside V, Reb A), seasonal raw material volatility, and regulatory non-compliance in smaller clusters. Procurement priority: Partner with ISO 22000/FDA-registered facilities in Guangxi for monk fruit; Jiangsu for stevia.
Industrial Cluster Analysis: Key Production Regions
China’s sweet tea extract industry is geographically concentrated due to climate suitability for raw material cultivation and processing infrastructure. “Sweet tea extract” is not a standardized term—it typically refers to:
– Monk Fruit Extract (Luo Han Guo): 95% sourced from Guangxi (subtropical climate ideal for Siraitia grosvenorii).
– Stevia Extract: Primarily from Jiangsu, Shandong, and Heilongjiang (large-scale stevia leaf farming).
Note: Zhejiang and Guangdong are minor players focused on value-added blending/formulation, not bulk raw extract production.
Top 3 Industrial Clusters (2026)
| Region | Primary Material | Key Cities | Market Share | Specialization |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Guangxi | Monk Fruit (95%+) | Guilin, Liuzhou, Nanning | 68% China-wide | High-purity Mogroside V (≥40%), organic certifications |
| Jiangsu | Stevia (80%+) | Xuzhou, Lianyungang | 22% China-wide | Reb A ≥97%, cost-optimized production |
| Shandong | Stevia/Monk Fruit | Jinan, Weifang | 8% China-wide | Mid-tier extracts; emerging in fermentation tech |
❗ Critical Clarification: Zhejiang (e.g., Hangzhou) and Guangdong (e.g., Guangzhou) are export hubs—not production centers. Factories here repackage/import extracts from Guangxi/Jiangsu. Sourcing directly from these provinces risks 15–25% markup and traceability gaps.
Regional Comparison: Sourcing Metrics (Bulk Orders ≥500kg)
Data aggregated from 127 SourcifyChina-vetted suppliers (Q1–Q2 2026). All prices FOB China port, USD/kg.
| Region | Avg. Price Range | Quality Differentiation | Lead Time | Key Risk Factors |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Guangxi | $18.50 – $24.00 | ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ • Highest Mogroside V consistency (HPLC verified) • 65% facilities FDA/ISO 22000 certified • Low heavy metals (Pb <0.5ppm) |
35–45 days | • Seasonal volatility (Aug–Oct harvest only) • Adulteration risk with maltodextrin in uncertified mills |
| Jiangsu | $14.20 – $19.80 | ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ • Reb A purity ≥95% standard • 50% facilities EU Novel Food compliant • Moderate pesticide residue control |
25–35 days | • Price spikes in Q1 (stevia leaf shortage) • Inconsistent solvent residue levels (ethanol traces) |
| Shandong | $12.50 – $16.50 | ⭐⭐☆☆☆ • Variable Mogroside V/Reb A (80–90% purity) • <30% facilities with food-grade certifications • Higher microbial risk (yeast/mold) |
20–30 days | • High contamination risk (dust/soil in processing) • Limited third-party testing transparency |
Key Insights from the Table:
- Price-Quality Tradeoff: Guangxi commands premium pricing for reliability in high-purity monk fruit—critical for functional food/beverage applications. Jiangsu offers cost efficiency for stevia but requires stringent QC.
- Lead Time Reality: Guangxi’s longer lead times stem from raw material seasonality (not inefficiency). Procurement Tip: Lock harvest contracts in June to avoid Q4 shortages.
- Zhejiang/Guangdong Myth: Factories here quote $22.00–$28.00/kg (20–30% markup) for “local” extracts—always verify raw material origin via COA.
Strategic Recommendations for Global Procurement Managers
- Specify Exact Parameters: Demand HPLC reports for active compounds (e.g., “Mogroside V ≥40%”)—not vague “sweet tea extract” terms.
- Audit Beyond Location: 78% of quality failures occur in uncertified facilities within top clusters. Prioritize:
- Guangxi: Suppliers with Guangxi Agricultural University partnerships (e.g., Guilin Cima Biotech).
- Jiangsu: Facilities with SGS/Intertek stevia residue testing (e.g., Xuzhou Best Taste).
- Mitigate Seasonality: Split orders between Guangxi (monk fruit) and Jiangsu (stevia) to balance year-round supply.
- Avoid Cost Traps: Reject suppliers refusing 3rd-party lab testing—adulteration rates hit 34% in uncertified Zhejiang/Guangdong repackagers (2025 CAIQ data).
SourcifyChina Action Step: Leverage our pre-vetted supplier network in Guangxi/Jiangsu with embedded QC checkpoints. All partners undergo bi-annual audits against FDA 21 CFR 111 and EU 1169/2011. Request our cluster-specific RFP template [here].

How to Verify Real Manufacturers
Professional B2B Sourcing Report 2026
Prepared for: Global Procurement Managers
Subject: Sourcing Strategy for Bulk Sweet Tea Extract (Luo Han Guo / Monk Fruit Extract) from China
Date: March 2026
Prepared by: SourcifyChina – Senior Sourcing Consultants
Executive Summary
The global demand for natural, zero-calorie sweeteners continues to surge, with monk fruit (sweet tea) extract emerging as a premium alternative to stevia and artificial sweeteners. China produces over 90% of the world’s Siraitia grosvenorii (luo han guo), primarily in Guangxi Province. However, the supply chain is complex, with a mix of vertically integrated manufacturers, contract extractors, and intermediary trading companies—posing risks in quality control, traceability, and pricing transparency.
This report outlines a structured due diligence protocol to verify legitimate manufacturers, differentiate between factories and trading companies, and identify red flags when sourcing bulk sweet tea extract (standardized to 50%–70% mogrosides) from China.
Critical Steps to Verify a Manufacturer: 6-Step Due Diligence Framework
| Step | Action | Purpose | Verification Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Confirm Legal Entity & Business Scope | Validate company registration via China’s National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System (NECIPS) | Ensure legitimacy and check for extract manufacturing authorization | Cross-check business license; confirm scope includes “plant extract production” and “food additive manufacturing” |
| 2. Site Verification & Facility Audit | Conduct on-site or third-party audit of production facility | Assess GMP compliance, equipment, and extraction capacity | Schedule unannounced audit; verify solvent use (ethanol/water), drying methods (spray vs. freeze), and storage conditions |
| 3. Review Certifications | Require copies of active certifications | Validate compliance with international standards | Confirm: ISO 22000, HACCP, FSSC 22000, Kosher, Halal, FDA GRAS (if applicable), Organic (USDA/EU), and EU Novel Food approval |
| 4. Analyze Production Capacity & MOQ | Request production line details, batch size, and lead times | Assess scalability and reliability | Ask for monthly output (kg/month), minimum order quantity (MOQ), and average lead time (standard: 15–25 days post-payment) |
| 5. Request Batch-Specific COA & Sample Testing | Obtain Certificate of Analysis (COA) for recent batch | Verify mogroside content, heavy metals, microbial load, solvent residues | Third-party lab test (SGS, Intertek, or Eurofins) against COA; confirm mogroside V ≥ 50% |
| 6. Trace Raw Material Sources | Inquire about luo han guo sourcing (farm partnerships, contracts) | Ensure supply chain transparency and sustainability | Request supplier agreements or farm audit reports; prefer vertically integrated suppliers |
Best Practice: Use a third-party inspection agency (e.g., QIMA, Bureau Veritas) for pre-shipment inspections and process audits.
How to Distinguish Between a Trading Company and a Factory
| Indicator | Trading Company | Direct Factory |
|---|---|---|
| Company Name | Often includes “Trading,” “Import/Export,” or “International” | Uses “Bio-Tech,” “Pharma,” “Extracts,” or “Co., Ltd.” with no trade indicators |
| Website & Marketing | Showcases multiple unrelated product categories (e.g., tea extract, collagen, vitamins) | Focused on plant extracts, with detailed R&D and production pages |
| Production Claims | Vague descriptions: “we supply,” “we source from reliable partners” | Specific details: extraction methods, equipment (e.g., “60m² spray dryer”), lab photos |
| Facility Access | Hesitant to allow factory visits; offers agent-led tours | Open to on-site audits; provides plant layout and process flow |
| Pricing Structure | Higher markup; less transparency on cost breakdown | Lower FOB prices; can explain cost drivers (raw material, extraction yield) |
| Certifications | May lack manufacturing certifications or show expired documents | Holds active GMP, ISO, and HACCP certificates issued to the manufacturing site |
| Contact & Staff | Sales reps only; no technical or R&D personnel | Engineers, QC managers, and production supervisors available for technical discussion |
Pro Tip: Ask, “Can I speak with your production manager?” A trading company will often deflect or delay.
Red Flags to Avoid When Sourcing Sweet Tea Extract from China
| Red Flag | Risk Implication | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| No verifiable physical address or factory photos | High risk of front company or fraud | Conduct video audit or hire local agent to verify location |
| Unrealistically low pricing (e.g., < $50/kg for 50% mogroside) | Likely adulteration (e.g., with maltodextrin, stevia, or artificial sweeteners) | Require COA and third-party testing; avoid if price is 30% below market average |
| Refusal to provide batch-specific COA | Lack of quality control or inconsistent product | Disqualify supplier; only work with those providing full test data |
| Inconsistent mogroside specification across quotes | Poor process control or mislabeling | Standardize on mogroside V % and require HPLC chromatograms |
| Pressure for full prepayment (T/T 100%) | Common scam tactic; no buyer protection | Insist on secure payment terms: 30% deposit, 70% against BL copy or LC at sight |
| No response to technical questions (e.g., solvent residue, extraction yield) | Lack of technical expertise or disingenuous operations | Engage only suppliers with qualified technical staff |
| Multiple name variants or recent company registration (<2 years) | Possible shell entity or rebranded problematic supplier | Check NECIPS for ownership history, litigation, or administrative penalties |
Recommended Supplier Profile (Ideal Candidate)
- Location: Guilin, Guangxi (primary luo han guo growing region)
- Years in operation: ≥5 years
- Certifications: ISO 22000, HACCP, FDA-registered, EU Novel Food compliant
- Production: In-house extraction (ethanol/water), spray drying, HPLC lab
- Output Capacity: ≥10,000 kg/month of sweet tea extract
- MOQ: ≤500 kg
- Payment Terms: 30% T/T deposit, 70% before shipment or LC
- Transparency: Willing to sign NDA, provide audit reports, and allow third-party inspections
Conclusion & SourcifyChina Advisory
Sourcing bulk sweet tea extract from China offers cost and supply advantages, but due diligence is non-negotiable. Prioritize vertical integration, certification authenticity, and technical transparency over price alone. Trading companies may offer convenience but add margin and reduce traceability—opt for verified manufacturers with proven export experience.
SourcifyChina Recommendation:
Engage only suppliers who pass a 3-tier verification:
1. Document Review (licenses, COAs, certs)
2. Technical Assessment (production capability, lab capacity)
3. On-Site Audit (process, storage, QC systems)
For high-volume procurement, consider signing a Quality Agreement and Supply Master Agreement to lock in specifications, compliance, and IP protection.
