Indonesia’s Growing Coconut Export Power
Indonesia has become one of the world’s leading exporters of coconut-based products, supplying the global market with high-quality, sustainable goods. In recent years, demand from the United States has grown rapidly as importers and distributors seek natural, eco-friendly alternatives for the food, beauty, and energy industries.
This case study explores how Indonesian companies successfully export coconut sugar, coconut charcoal briquettes, and coco fiber to the U.S. while meeting American import standards.
High Demand for Coconut-Based Products in the U.S.
The U.S. market shows a steady increase in demand for coconut derivatives due to rising consumer interest in organic, vegan, and eco-friendly products.
According to 2024 market data, the import volume of coconut products from Southeast Asia rose by more than 18%, with Indonesia contributing significantly to this growth.
American distributors appreciate Indonesian coconut products for their:
-
Consistent quality and purity
-
Sustainable sourcing and processing methods
-
Competitive pricing compared to other origins
-
Versatile applications across industries — from food and beverage to cosmetics and home goods
Coconut Sugar, Charcoal Briquettes, and Coco Fiber
Coconut Sugar
Coconut sugar is increasingly used in U.S. health food industries as a low-glycemic natural sweetener. American buyers prefer it for organic food production and retail markets focusing on diabetic-friendly products.
Coconut Charcoal Briquettes
Popular among BBQ distributors and outdoor retailers, coconut charcoal briquettes are valued for their long burn time, minimal smoke, and eco-friendly composition — ideal for sustainable grilling and camping markets.
Coco Fiber
Used in the mattress, automotive, and horticulture sectors, coco fiber is a renewable material that aligns perfectly with the U.S. sustainability trend.
Ensuring Quality and Certification Compliance
Before entering the U.S. market, Indonesian exporters must meet strict import standards.
Atrin International and other suppliers ensure compliance with:
-
USDA Organic Certification
-
HALAL & KOSHER Certification

Phytosanitary & FDA Registration
These certifications build trust with buyers and guarantee that each product complies with American regulations and ethical sourcing requirements.
Efficient Logistics and Delivery to the U.S.
Exports are typically shipped in 40ft containers, optimized for bulk efficiency.
Main U.S. entry points include Los Angeles, Houston, and Miami ports, enabling smooth distribution to various states.
Each shipment undergoes moisture control, custom inspection, and quality re-check before departure to ensure premium condition upon arrival.
