Psyllium Husk Supply to Miami Market
Miami receives psyllium husk through Port of Miami, handling over 1.1 million TEUs annually. Florida bakery sector uses psyllium for gluten-free bread and fiber enrichment. Local distributors supply to commercial bakeries across Southeast United States. Miami's proximity to Latin American markets creates re-export opportunities. Food-grade psyllium demand increased 18% in 2024 due to health bread trends. Port has direct container lines from Mundra and Nhava Sheva. Transit time averages 28-32 days. Most buyers order 1-2 containers per quarter for consistent bakery production.
