- Gross sales of A$386,404.45 in eighth trading month
- Second highest monthly sales performance to date

Strong Monthly Sales Signal Growth Momentum
BPH Global Ltd (ASX, BP8) has announced gross sales of A$386,404.45 for its eighth month of seaweed trading, marking the company’s second highest monthly performance since launching operations in May 2025. This result trails only the record sales of A$551,627 achieved in the sixth month, underscoring a robust upward trajectory in the company’s trading activities.
Since inception, BPH Global has generated approximately A$2.15 million in gross sales, reflecting steady growth in a niche but expanding market for Indonesian seaweed products. The company’s focus on scaling its operations and diversifying sales channels appears to be paying off.
Strategic Shift Towards Independent Operations
A key highlight of the latest trading period is the continued shift away from reliance on the Sales Cooperation Agreement with PT Kebula Raya Bestari. Only about A$37,000 of sales were made under this agreement, with the vast majority stemming from BPH Global’s independent sourcing, processing, and distribution via its Makassar warehouse platform.
This strategic pivot was first outlined in earlier announcements and is now materialising as the company builds a scalable, self-directed operating footprint in Indonesia. The Makassar facility is becoming the hub for the company’s growing seaweed trading business, enabling greater control over supply chains and customer relationships.
Management’s Outlook and Growth Priorities
Managing Director Matthew Leonard emphasised the significance of the Month 8 results, noting they validate the company’s strategy to develop a sustainable seaweed trading platform. He highlighted the growing capability of the in-country infrastructure and team, which bodes well for expanding volumes and export opportunities in 2026.
Looking ahead, BPH Global is prioritising the expansion of independent trading volumes, strengthening supply chain resilience, deepening domestic and international customer relationships, and advancing export readiness under its Indonesian Seaweed Export Licence. Monthly updates on sales volumes will continue to provide transparency on progress.
Navigating Seasonal and Market Dynamics
The company’s sales performance has shown some seasonal variability, with a dip in Month 7 attributed to rainy season conditions impacting supply. However, the rebound in Month 8 demonstrates resilience and underlying demand for Indonesian seaweed products remains strong, supporting the company’s growth strategy.
As BPH Global continues to scale its operations, the balance between independent sales and cooperative agreements will be a key metric to watch, alongside the company’s ability to capitalise on export markets and supply chain efficiencies.
Bottom Line?
BPH Global’s growing independence in Indonesian seaweed trading sets the stage for a pivotal year of expansion and export growth.
Questions in the middle?
- How will BPH Global’s export licence impact sales volumes and margins in 2026?
- What are the risks and opportunities in scaling independent operations versus cooperative agreements?
- How resilient is the supply chain to seasonal and environmental factors affecting seaweed production?
