Greetings! Fall 2021. Fall is "Peak Season" for Kratom each year following the hot, dry, Indonesia summer. This Vendor List has not changed much since 2020; the core group of proven, quality, online vendors in USA are mostly the same. Buyers are searching for just a few good sources, and consumers want quality over quantity. Therefore we've decided to reduce this List, from a Top-40, down to a "vetted" Top-20.

This vetted Vendor List, will continue to focus on small to medium, online sellers who import direct from Indonesia. We prefer those who partner with Indo sources, to bring you the highest possible quality kratom. Indo recipes and blends with classic Red, Green and White "strains" products are also preferred. There is a strong "small batch" kratom market in USA! Consumers want all-natural kratom powder, excellent quality, and Wild Harvest leaf ~ Let's support our Indo partners, and make sure they receive fair prices for their best product!

History: The Saidit Vendor List, was known as the "Reddit Vendor List" back in 2017. Then in 2018, Reddit banned sales and transactions on their platform. This former Reddit sub moved here, to Saidit ~ now, nearly five years later, the USA Kratom market is mature. Many vetted vendors, have now been serving USA consumers 5+ years. Kratom is legal under Federal Law in USA, however the FDA has still not approved Kratom as a dietary supplement. Many Asian herbs: Ginseng, Cordyceps, Schisandra, medicinal seaweeds, and others are "Supplements" under the DSHEA Act of 1994.

Although Kratom has been used in Asian countries for 100's of years, it was not covered under DSHEA. So until the FDA gives approval as a Supplement, Kratom cannot be sold legally for any consumption or dietary purpose ~ Please note: All of the vendors on this List sell kratom NFHC - Not For Human Consumption, and you'll find language on each website to that effect. It's up to each vendor whether or not to use a "Supplement Facts" Label, since all 50 USA states have different laws, and the Federal issue with FDA has not been resolved!

Honorable Mention: In addition to the Top-20 Vendors listed above, many others are worthy of recognition ~ There are still over 200 online vendors of kratom, selling to USA markets!
