The format decision for Austria

The value of larger dried galangal pieces in Austria is flexibility: the importer can inspect, mill, break, or repack them to the specification used by its own customers.

Choose whole or chunk for Austria when the buyer wants to inspect larger pieces and control milling, extraction preparation, or final cutting locally. Choose slices when a defined arrival-ready cut removes meaningful work at destination.
