I was loading the daily ads when Ms. Qaisi called me. She said very frankly:
“I have an Indian customer who is operating in Saudi Arabia. He wants to order 10 kilos of saffron in one-gram packages. Honestly, since I have no information about the saffron trade in Saudi Arabia, I would be happy to guide you.”
Challenge and Opportunity of Saffron in Saudi Arabia

Sometimes a simple question can be the beginning of a serious adventure. A valuable market like Saudi Arabia, especially in the field of saffron, only provides the possibility of successful sales with complete knowledge and accurate information.
Saffron loved by Saudis
I explained to Ms. Qaisi that Saudi customers are very familiar with saffron. I know this very well, because King Business has been exporting saffron to Saudi Arabia for more than ten years and we know the tastes and preferences of that market very well.
The secret to successful saffron exports to Saudi Arabia
It is interesting to know that Saudi customers not only pay attention to the quality of saffron, but packaging also plays a decisive role for them.
Household saffron in this country is generally offered in small and beautiful packages; because families prefer to prepare a product that, in addition to its desired aroma and flavor, has a worthy appearance for entertaining guests.
Saudi traders’ view of saffron
However, for commercial consumption, the story is a little different. Saudi traders are looking to buy saffron in large quantities, but they still consider the luxury of the packaging to be a factor in attracting their customers. For this reason, the saffron business in Saudi Arabia is difficult to achieve without paying attention to the design and details of the packaging.
Choosing King Business Luxury Boxes

I was happy when Ms. Qaisy said that the customer had chosen King Business Luxury Boxes. Because this choice showed that they wanted exactly what the Saudi market liked.
Elegant packaging is the winning card of saffron in the Saudi market
These boxes not only keep saffron in the best conditions, but also, due to their special design, are great for giving as gifts and for use in official ceremonies. This is one of the winning cards in the saffron trade in Saudi Arabia.
And regarding the price of saffron:
Today’s price of saffron in Saudi Arabia
For complete transparency, the prices were announced in detail:
Price of luxury boxes in bulk: 8.99 euros
Bulk saffron in Jeddah: $1,890 per kilo
Bulk saffron in Mecca: $2,509 per kilo

This difference in prices shows that geographical location and type of consumer have a great impact on sales strategy.
An experience beyond an order
This order showed that success in the Saudi market does not end with just selling the product. You need to understand the customer’s needs, offer a product that matches their taste, and create added value with luxurious packaging.
In short, the saffron business in Saudi Arabia is a combination of quality, trust, and detail.
