On 9/20/22
113,750kg of kratom were imported in one day. That's only on one day, and only under the name Speciosa for product description. There is so much more that comes in under different product descriptions that i cant even explain how much in total is coming in daily. These shipments 90% or more are going to domestic suppliers who resell to vendors/headshop companies. 90% of vendors in USA are reselling kratom from these domestic suppliers.
Here are some good links to check out and please understand alot of powder does not come in as speciosa

And this one is for previous years

I will add more information and context but i have to go to the post office now.

Sorry about the OT but Speciosa sounds like a Harry Potter spell ("Avante Speciosa!")

tons of kratom.

I forgot about this post. I only get on doublem every weekish. Basically almost all kratom sold in the USA is imported via sea containers and almost all of those are imported by a handful of companies. Speaking from air cargo angle which isnt included, sure some comes in via air cargo, but you cant get tons and tons imported via aircargo as there is really just not enough space on the airplanes. Shipping air cargo is a pain in the butt also. If we place a order via any of our 5 current suppliers 2-3 months is about the average time for arrival via air cargo, plus 1-2 weeks for lab results . Anything faster then that consistently, i would suspect they are ordering domestic.

Thanks for finishing that thought.
I'm putting one in the que to show my appreciation.
