Turkish chocolate, dragées, Turkish delight and confectionery for importers in Argentina
One mixed container from Gaziantep, Türkiye, to Buenos Aires: chocolate, dragées, Turkish delight, confectionery and pistachio products, with the Spanish label content for the Argentine market prepared before printing. Written offer in US dollars within two working days of your list.
One container, every line, from Gaziantep.
We quote for Argentine food importers and distributors, for the golosinas wholesalers that sell chocolate and wrapped sweets by the carton, for the pastelería and heladería trade that buys chocolate by the kilo, and for brands that want chocolate, dragées or Turkish delight made under their own name. It is worth being plain about what the Argentine search terms mean: mayorista de golosinas, golosinas al por mayor and distribuidor de golosinas are typed by shopkeepers looking for a wholesaler down the road, and those results belong to the country’s own distributors. We are the step before that, the container that lands at Buenos Aires and fills the carton the wholesaler then sells. The unit of sale is one full container, mixed across as many lines as you like.
Argentina makes chocolate and golosinas in volume itself and the shelf is price-led, so the lines that travel from Gaziantep are the ones the domestic factories do not make: the pistachio and kadayıf bar the country searched for as chocolate de Dubai, pistachio tablets from where the pistachio grows, boxed Turkish delight, sugared almonds and the pistachio spread jar. Everything on this site is made in Gaziantep, in our own factory. That is what lets one container carry five product groups, and lets us check a lot before it is packed and photograph the pallets before the doors close. Every line is specified in the offer.
We supply direct from our own factory in Gaziantep, the city we work in.
- Food importers and distributors that hold the product registration and supply supermarkets, self-service chains and provincial wholesalers from Buenos Aires to Rosario, Córdoba and Mendoza
- Golosinas wholesalers and distributors that sell chocolate, dragées and wrapped sweets by the carton, from the Once wholesale trade to the regional distributors
- Pastelerías, heladerías and the gift trade that buy chocolate, coated nuts and pistachio jars, and ask for bulk formats as well as retail packs
- Brands and own-label buyers that want a line made under their own name, with the Spanish label content prepared before printing
Six lines, mixed to your list.
Each line travels on its own pallet; the container is mixed. Outside the core range we source on request and load it in the same shipment.

What stays the same on every offer.
Rates and rules change; the quotation states what applies on the day. These points do not change.
- Label
- A Spanish label with the mandatory information for the Argentine market: the ingredient list with the allergen declaration, the nutrition table, metric net quantity, lot, the best before date, and the importer’s name and registration details. Argentina also asks for front-of-pack warning seals on packs that meet the criteria for the nutrients concerned; that assessment is made line by line from our nutrition data before artwork goes to print. For lines in our standard packs we confirm what the export pack already carries and what the importer adds; for private label we prepare the label content from our technical data sheet and check your artwork before anything is printed.
- Registration and entry
- The product registration and the import declaration sit on the importer’s side: imported food is registered by the importer with the food authority before it is sold, and the declaration for the shipment is filed before the goods travel. The systems here have been renamed and reworked more than once, so nothing about them is printed on this site as a fixed fact; the offer states what applies on the day and which documents go with it. From our side you receive the technical data sheet per product, our certificates and the analysis report per line.
- Customs, duty and payment
- Argentina applies the Mercosur common external tariff. The offer states the tariff line and the duty that applies on the day, so the landed cost is known before you order; nothing about duty is printed on this site, because it changes. Offers are in US dollars. Bank transfer only: 50% with the order, 50% before the container leaves, against the loading photographs. The transfer route and its timing are arranged by the importer with its own bank, and the offer is written so the schedule can be matched to it.
- Route, port and season
- Sea freight from Mersin to Buenos Aires, with the transshipment port, the delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, and the transit stated in the offer. The crossing passes the tropics and the Argentine summer is the northern winter, so chocolate and chocolate-coated lines are quoted in a reefer year round; Turkish delight, sugared almonds and jellies travel dry, and both can travel in the same container. Season matters for ordering here: Easter and Día del Niño are the chocolate moments, and the Christmas gift season falls in the hottest weeks of the year.
- Certificates
- Certificates are held for our factory. Halal, kosher and food-safety scheme certificates are listed line by line with the certifying body named. Buenos Aires has a real kosher trade, and where a line is under kosher supervision the offer says which body supervises it.
- What goes in the container
- Five families in one load, each line on its own pallet: chocolate, in tablets, bars and the pistachio and kadayıf bar; dragées, chocolate, sugared almonds and nut centres; Turkish delight, plain, with pistachio and chocolate covered, in boxes and jars; confectionery, jellies, hard candy and marshmallow; and pistachio products, including the spread jar. Where a line is a vegetable-fat coating rather than chocolate the offer says so for that line, because a compound coating is not chocolate and is not sold as one. Mix as many references as you like: panachage across lines is how the container is built.
- Dubai chocolate and the pistachio jar
- The pistachio and kadayıf bar Argentina searched for as chocolate de Dubai is made in Gaziantep too, where the pistachio grows and the kadayıf is made, in retail and gift formats in our standard packs or under your brand. The pistachio jar travels with it: our line is a sweet pistachio spread, the product readers look for as crema de pistacho, and it is labelled as a spread rather than a cream. Pure pistachio paste for pastry work, pasta de pistacho by the kilo, is a different product; it is sourced on request, and we confirm composition and format before quoting.
- Pastry, ice cream and bulk formats
- The pastelería and heladería trade searches for cobertura de chocolate and buys by the kilo. Couverture and bulk chocolate in blocks or buckets, raw nuts, dried fruit and cocoa sit outside the range we hold: they are sourced on request, and we confirm composition and format before quoting. Two things are worth saying plainly. What Argentina calls turrón is mostly a local oat and peanut bar that is not in our range, so nothing on this page is offered under that name; and the wholesale results you find in Spanish belong to Argentine distributors, while what we write is the container behind their carton.
Private label chocolate and confectionery for Argentine brands

We put our own lines under your name: tablets, bars, dragées in doypacks, gift boxes, Turkish delight boxes and pistachio spread jars, with the Spanish label content prepared for the Argentine market and nothing printed before you approve it.
Private label for Argentine brands →Asked before the first list.
Do you work with importers in Argentina?
We quote for food importers, distributors, golosinas wholesalers, the pastry trade and private-label brands in Argentina. Send the product references, the quantities you have in mind and the port; the written offer follows within two working days.
Which port do you ship to?
Buenos Aires. The offer names the transshipment port and the delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, together with the transit.
Who holds the registration and the import declaration?
The importer. Imported food is registered on the importer’s side with the food authority, and the declaration for the shipment is filed before the goods travel. The offer states what applies on the day and which documents are supplied for it.
Do the packs need the front-of-pack warning seals?
Where a line meets the criteria for the nutrients concerned, yes. The assessment is made line by line from our nutrition data before artwork goes to print; for private label we prepare the label content and check your artwork against it, and nothing is printed before you approve it.
Is the container a reefer?
For chocolate and chocolate-coated lines, yes, year round on this route. Turkish delight, sugared almonds and jellies travel dry, and both can travel in one container.
Do you supply couverture or bulk chocolate by the kilo?
Couverture, bulk chocolate in blocks or buckets, raw nuts and dried fruit sit outside the range we hold. They are sourced on request, and we confirm composition and format before quoting.
Can you make our own brand for the Argentine market?
Yes — private label is one of our core services. We prepare the Spanish label content for the Argentine market, you approve the artwork in writing, and the minimum per line is stated in the offer.
Is Antep Foods a chocolate manufacturer in Türkiye?
Yes. Antep Foods is a manufacturer and exporter in Gaziantep, exporting since 2002. Production takes place in our own factory; certificates and data sheets are issued for our factory. Wholesale only; prices come in a written offer, not on the site.
