MRMN Salt Team
Egyptian Salt Brokerage Experts

As a U.S.-based brokerage, MRMN Salt connects North American buyers — especially winter-maintenance programs and salt distributors — with qualified Egyptian rock salt production. We work to the buyer's required specification rather than a single standard product, coordinating grading, packaging, documentation, and shipment under agreed commercial terms. Egyptian rock salt from El-Max and Port Said lakes provides competitive performance against Chilean rock salt for de-icing efficacy. Final specifications are confirmed in the contract for each transaction.
Grading matched to winter maintenance needs across northern US states and Canadian provinces. Effective at −10 °C.
NaCl 95–98%, moisture, insolubles, and particle distribution (2–50mm) matched to your requirement.
Large bulk quantities coordinated through Damietta, Port Said, and Alexandria ports for North American buyers.
Anti-caking treatment can be arranged where your application requires it.

Documentation & Inspection
Depending on the selected product and supplier, documentation may include:
Independent third-party inspection can be arranged when requested — including weighing, sampling, and laboratory analysis at origin by SGS, Bureau Veritas, or Intertek. Inspection requirements are agreed before the contract is finalized.
We operate on an FOB (Free On Board) Egyptian port basis only. The buyer is responsible for arranging and paying for ocean freight and onward transportation from the Egyptian loading port.
Lead time is confirmed per order based on availability, quantity, specifications, and loading schedule. We provide an estimated timeline during quotation after confirming all order details with the supplier.
