Ground yerba mate, medium particle size

Export

The global yerba mate market already tops US$2.5 billion and grows more than 6% a year, driven by people who want natural well-being in any format: gourd, cup, can or powder. And the math is clear. In the first half of 2026, branded, packaged yerba mate shipped at about US$3,400 per metric ton. Bulk shipped at US$1,660. Cultyvada is the partner for selling value, not volume: award-winning yerba mate, with Gran Oro and Plata at the 1º Mundial de la Yerba Mate, in the grind your market recognizes, under the Cultyvada brand or produced under yours. It's not just another drink: it's an ancestral ritual from South America, ready for your market.

Yerba mate the way your customer drinks it

Every country learned to drink yerba mate its own way, and the difference lies in the grind and the aging. These are our standard grinds. We also produce to your specification.
