But these prices certainly differ from one seller to another depending on many factors, Thus, you will find me also sharing with you the most important reasons that lead to the difference in the prices of honey bees.
These prices are for the original honey only. So any other prices that are exaggeratedly lower than the ones here may make you wonder if this honey is guaranteed or not.
Now let’s get to know quickly…
bee honey prices
Prices vary greatly from one country to another, and certainly from one type to another.

These types of bee cough are the most famous in Saudi Arabia and the most sought after with their prices.
Bee honey prices in Egypt

The well-known type in Egypt is clover honey, and the price of 500 grams of it ranges from 50 to 100 pounds.
In addition to citrus honey, the price of which ranges between 50 – 120 Egyptian pounds
Now that you know the prices, let me tell you…
Reasons for the difference in honey prices
As I told you above, there is more than one reason why honey prices vary.
The main reasons, in order, are…
1- The quality of honey
Quality is one of the most important reasons for the different prices of bee honey.
Of course, high-quality, original honey will be much more expensive than adulterated honey, regardless of the method of adulteration.
Therefore, you will often find guaranteed honey at a rather high price compared to honey that is not trusted from its source.
2- type of honey
There are dozens of types of honey, some good, some excellent, and some poor.
Each of these types has advantages and benefits that differ from the other, and this is what made some types higher prices than others.
Sidr honey, for example, is more expensive than black forest honey, which in turn is more expensive than clover honey or nigella honey, and so on.
Not only that, However, prices also differ according to the type due to the difference in supply and demand for a specific type. In addition to the production conditions for each type.
3- The seller
Is the source you purchased from, is it reliable or not?
For example, we in Assalon have quality certificates from more than one party, whether Saudi or German.
Therefore, our prices are somewhat higher than others, because we are keen in every way to provide you with the best quality so that you can enjoy it.
4- Packaging
Packaging is an important factor in the price fluctuation of bee honey, and this is certainly due to the cost that is added to the product.
Therefore, the higher the packaging, the higher the price of the product.
5- Did you buy from a direct seller or a middleman?
Distribution and transportation stages definitely increase the cost.
Therefore, buying from the producer or owner directly will make the prices somewhat good compared to buying the same type of honey from a retailer.
6- The source of honey
Some types of honey are produced locally in the same country. While others are imported from abroad.
You might think that importing raises the price, But….
Some imported types are already very expensive, but others are somewhat lower than the local ones.
This certainly depends on the exporting country as well as the quantities that it produces of these types.
Thus, we have finished the prices of natural bee honey, in addition to the reasons for the difference in those prices.
