Shipping & Lead Times

How long does production and shipping take?

Production typically runs 2–4 weeks depending on product mix and container size. Sea freight from Karachi adds roughly 2–3 weeks to the Gulf, 4–5 weeks to Europe, and 5–7 weeks to North America. We handle container loading, sea freight, and the full export document set, and LCL shipments are available for smaller first orders.

Everything is hand-mined at the Warcha Salt Mines in Khushab District, Punjab, Pakistan and processed at our own Hamdani Salt Factory — factory-direct, no middlemen.
