Turkish chocolate, dragées, Turkish delight and confectionery for importers in Cape Verde
One mixed container from Gaziantep, Türkiye, to Praia or Mindelo: chocolate, dragées, Turkish delight, confectionery and pistachio products, with a Portuguese label and a reefer for the chocolate lines. Written offer in US dollars or euros within two working days of your list.
One container, every line, from Gaziantep.
We quote for food importers and distributors in Cape Verde, for the wholesalers that supply supermarkets, minimercados and the hotel and tourist trade across Santiago, São Vicente and Sal, and for brands that want chocolate, dragées or Turkish delight made under their own name. An island importer usually needs breadth rather than depth: many lines, modest quantities per line, one shipment. That is exactly what a mixed container is for.
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 supply supermarkets, minimercados and the island trade from Praia and Mindelo
- Hotel and tourist suppliers that need gift boxes, Turkish delight and chocolate for shops, hotels and the airport trade
- Brands and own-label buyers that want a line made under their own name, with the Portuguese label 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 Portuguese label: the product name, the ingredient list with the allergen declaration, the nutrition table, metric net weight, storage, the production and expiry dates, the country of origin and the importer’s details. For lines in our standard packs we confirm what the export pack already carries; for private label we prepare the label content from our technical data sheet and check your artwork before anything is printed.
- Import licence and entry
- The importer holds the licence and the registration on its side, and food consignments are inspected on entry. The offer states what applies on the day and which documents we supply for it: the technical data sheet per product, our certificates, the health certificate and the analysis report per line.
- Breadth over depth
- A market this size does not need a pallet of one reference; it needs many references that each turn over. One container can carry chocolate, dragées, Turkish delight, confectionery and pistachio products together, with the minimum per line stated in the offer, so the shipment covers a whole shelf instead of one line of it.
- Islands and onward distribution
- Praia for Santiago and the southern islands, Mindelo for São Vicente and the north. The offer names the port, the transshipment and the delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, together with the transit; onward movement between the islands is on your side, and the case weight per line is in the offer so you can plan it.
- Temperature
- The Atlantic leg is long and the destination is warm. Chocolate and chocolate-coated lines are quoted in a reefer; Turkish delight, sugared almonds, jellies and pistachio products travel dry, and both can share one container.
- The tourist shelf
- Gift boxes, boxed Turkish delight, the pistachio roll and chocolate covered lokum sell to visitors as well as to the resident shelf; the Turkish delight page lists the groups and the gift formats.
- Dubai chocolate, from Türkiye
- The pistachio and kadayif bar sold as Dubai chocolate is made in Gaziantep too, where the pistachio grows and the kadayif is made, in retail and gift formats in our standard packs or under your brand; pistachio cream in jars travels with it.
- Currency and payment
- Offers in US dollars. Bank transfer only: 50% with the order, 50% before the container leaves, against the loading photographs. The banking route is agreed before the deposit, and the offer states what applies on the day.
- Sourced on request
- Outside the core range we buy in what your list needs and load it in the same container: biscuits and wafers in bulk, sugar free Turkish delight, bulk pistachio nuts, nuts and dried fruit in bulk, halva, instant coffee and spices.

Do you work with importers in Cape Verde?
We quote for food importers, distributors, wholesalers, hotel suppliers and private-label brands in Cape Verde. 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?
Praia or Mindelo. The offer names the port, the transshipment and the delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, together with the transit.
Is one container too much for our market?
It is one container, but it does not have to be one product. Mix it across as many lines as you like; the minimum per line and the case weight are stated in the offer, so the shipment can cover a whole shelf rather than one line of it.
Is the container a reefer?
For chocolate lines, yes. Turkish delight, sugared almonds, jellies and pistachio products travel dry, and both can travel in one container.
Which language does the label need?
Portuguese. For private label we prepare the label content from our technical data sheet and check your artwork before anything is printed.
Can you quote in euros?
Yes. Offers are in US dollars or euros, as you prefer.
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.
