Garangao
On the night in the middle of Ramadan, children go door to door with bags and come home with sweets and nuts, and the trade that fills those bags buys by the carton in the weeks before: individually wrapped sweets, jellies and mini biscuits, chocolate coated almonds and hazelnuts, sugared almonds by colour and small wrapped chocolates. The Turkish lines that fit are on the confectionery page and the dragée page; the format, wrapped or loose, and the case weight per line are in the offer, and the timing is a container ahead of the month.
Weddings, graduations and newborns
The chocolate houses in Doha dress trays for the rest of the year’s occasions, and what they buy in is the part that is cheaper to buy than to make: sugared almonds and chocolate dragées by colour, coated nuts and bulk chocolate for their own moulds. One colour per carton or mixed, in the whites, ivories, golds and pastels the occasion trade asks for; the colours can be run to your own palette on selected lines under the private label page, with the cartons carrying your name.
Eid and the gift box
Chocolate gift box Qatar: Eid and corporate gifting buy assortments in printed boxes, mini bars and the boxed Turkish delight that sits next to the dates on the table. In our standard packs they are on the chocolate page; under your own they are on the private label page. The Eid ordering article goes through the timing from Gaziantep, and the same timing serves Garangao, which falls in the same month.
Who buys the container
A large house or a wholesaler that serves the occasion trade fills a container on its own and is quoted like an importer, with the commercial registration and the food-control registration on its side; a smaller house buys by the carton from the importer or the wholesaler that brings it in, or pools an order with others, each buyer’s cartons on their own pallets. Because the container is mixed, the Garangao lines travel next to the tray lines and the gift boxes, so one order covers the calendar.
Dry or reefer, and the label
Sugared almonds, jellies, wrapped sweets and Turkish delight travel dry all year; chocolate dragées, coated nuts and the gift boxes go in the reefer, year round in the Gulf. Arabic goes on every pack with the ingredients, the net weight, the importer’s name and the dates printed in production; lines with gelatine carry our halal certificate with the certifying body named. The price per line, the case weight and the tariff line are in the offer, with the duty that applies on the day.
What to send first
The lines from the chocolate page, the dragée page and the Turkish delight page, the quantity per line, and whether any line carries your own brand. The written offer follows within two working days, in US dollars, with the certifying body named per line; the samples page explains how to taste the lines first, and the Qatar page lists what stays the same on every offer.
Every line here is made in our own factory at Başpınar OSB, Gaziantep — a 10,000 m² site, exporting since 2002 — and certificate copies are available on request.
When should a Garangao order be placed?
A container ahead of the month: the offer states the lead time per line and the transit, and the Eid ordering article goes through the calendar.
Can a chocolate house order dragées in its own colours?
Yes, on selected lines: we run the colours you name and the cartons carry your brand. The minimum per colour is stated in the offer.
Do the wrapped sweets need a reefer?
No, they travel dry with the sugared almonds and the Turkish delight. Chocolate lines travel in the reefer, year round on this route.
