Is lavender oil supply affected by seasonality?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes — lavender blooms once a year, and that single harvest drives the annual supply. We manage this by distilling at peak bloom, then holding buffer stock to cover the inter-season window.

We contract fields in advance and commit stock to regular partners first.Share your forecasted annual volume and we will lock allocation and price stability across seasons.
