Hi Dang Tuan H, I'm Minwoo Cha at Tridge. I see GOLD STAR has 500+ almond import shipments.
Prices are higher than early 2024 and look likely to stay firm through 2026. That can squeeze margins between contract and arrival for GOLD STAR.
We can share COAs by lot, origin price bands, and customs-verified supplier records so you can check aflatoxin limits (Aflatoxin B1 2 µg/kg, total aflatoxins 4 µg/kg) and compare suppliers before you buy.
If you want data specific to GOLD STAR's almond sourcing, reply and I'll send it.

Loop draft
On the source: our import-activity views come from aggregated customs and shipping records matched to company identities. In this case, it looks like an entity‑matching error linked GOLD STAR to another similarly named importer — thanks for flagging it; I’ll correct our records so almonds aren’t associated with your profile.
Stepping back, for Vietnam-based buyers of nuts and other dry ingredients, a common pattern is that Northern Hemisphere harvest windows (Q3–Q4) drive Q4–Q1 export availability, while pre‑shipment COAs for aflatoxin/salmonella and GFSI-recognised plant certifications often determine which suppliers make shortlists. Ocean schedules can tighten unexpectedly when carriers blank sailings, so teams that need steady inputs tend to line up testing slots and space earlier in the harvest cycle rather than relying on spot.
To make sure I’m calibrating any future insight to what actually matters for GOLD STAR, how are you currently tracking supply‑side signals for your key raw materials — mainly via supplier/broker updates, or do you also review independent trade‑flow and origin benchmark data when planning buys?
