As Mexico’s livestock and poultry industries expand, feed manufacturers must secure steady access to key micronutrients like Ethylenediamine Dihydroiodide (EDDI). Bulk supply planning for EDDI isn’t just a procurement exercise—it’s about ensuring operational stability, product quality, and compliance across multiple production sites.
Here are the main considerations Mexican feed producers and distributors should evaluate when sourcing EDDI at scale.
1. Product Quality and Consistency
Feed-grade EDDI quality directly affects feed performance and animal health. Buyers should confirm that every shipment meets strict purity and iodine-content standards.
Checklist for suppliers:
-
Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for each lot
-
Compliance with SENASICA feed-additive guidelines
-
Uniform crystal or powder size for consistent mixing
-
Verified stability under humid conditions
Consistent chemistry ensures uniform feed blending—critical in Mexico’s high-volume production plants.
2. Packaging Options for Mexico’s Climate
EDDI is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture quickly. Suppliers should offer:
-
Multi-layer moisture-barrier bags or sealed drums
-
Bulk super sacks for large users
-
Clear labeling in Spanish, listing purity, batch number, and expiration date
Packaging design must protect the product from the country’s varied humidity—from coastal Veracruz to arid Chihuahua.
3. Logistics and Storage
Reliable logistics can make or break a feed supply chain. Mexican distributors should work with partners who:
-
Maintain regional warehousing near production zones
-
Offer on-time deliveries via land or port routes
-
Provide inventory tracking and safety-stock programs
Storage should follow GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices): cool, dry environments with pallets elevated from floors and minimal exposure to air.
4. Cost Efficiency Through Bulk Purchasing
Buying EDDI in bulk allows feed manufacturers to:
-
Negotiate volume discounts
-
Simplify customs and import paperwork
-
Reduce per-unit shipping costs
-
Standardize quality across multiple facilities
A supplier with both U.S. export experience and Mexican import knowledge simplifies the transaction and minimizes delays.
5. Documentation and Customs
Since EDDI can only be marketed within Mexico, import procedures must be precise. The supplier should provide:
-
Commercial invoice and CoA
-
Spanish-language Safety Data Sheet (SDS)
-
Import permits or sanitary certificates if required
-
Packaging compliance with NOM labeling standards
Mistakes in documentation can cause customs holds—so choose a supplier that handles compliance seamlessly.
6. Technical Support and Training
Beyond supply, a good partner will assist with:
-
Correct inclusion rates for different species
-
Safe handling protocols for workers
-
Storage and stability training
This added support protects both animal welfare and production quality.
Bulk procurement of Ethylenediamine Dihydroiodide in Mexico’s feed sector demands a supplier who delivers more than product—they deliver partnership, logistics reliability, and compliance confidence.
