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
- Arabic on the label, alone or next to English or French: the name of the food, the ingredient list with allergens, metric net weight, production and expiry dates, storage and the importer’s name and address. For lines in our standard packs we confirm what the export pack carries and what the importer adds as a sticker; for private label we prepare the label content and check your artwork against it before anything is printed.
- Customs and entry
- There is no free trade agreement in force between Lebanon and Türkiye. The offer states the tariff line for each product and the duty that applies on the day, so the landed cost is known before you order. The importer is registered with the authorities as a food business; consignments are checked at the port, and our certificates and the analysis report per line travel with the container. Every line is specified in the offer.
- Wedding and occasion chocolate
- Lebanon dresses its weddings, births and graduations with chocolate, and the houses that do it buy sugared almonds by colour, chocolate dragées in milk, dark and white, chocolate coated almonds and hazelnuts, and bulk chocolate for their own moulds. One colour per carton or mixed, case weight per line in the offer; the dragée page lists the groups. The house adds the ribbon, the tulle and the name; the carton comes from Gaziantep.
- Turkish delight in Lebanon
- Lebanon calls it raha and has made its own for generations, so the searches for Turkish delight Lebanon come from people who know the product: they want the pistachio roll, the rose and lemon cubes and the chocolate covered pieces from Türkiye next to the local kind. Boxed Turkish delight from Gaziantep and the pistachio roll are on the Turkish delight page; plain lines travel dry. We do not name the local makers; the trade knows them.
- Dubai chocolate, from Türkiye
- The pistachio and kadayif bar Lebanon searched for 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, and the Beirut chocolatiers that make their own bar buy the pistachio cream and the kadayif filling from us as well.
- Chocolate boxes and gift boxes
- Chocolate boxes Lebanon, chocolate gift box Lebanon: the gift trade buys assortments in printed boxes and mini bars for corporate and seasonal gifting. Boxed assortments in our standard packs are on the chocolate page; under your own brand they are on the private label page.
- Turkish chocolate brands
- Most lines are available in our standard packs, so an importer can start without artwork; on selected lines the same products can be made under your own name.
- Route
- Sea freight from Mersin to Beirut, one of the shortest crossings we quote, with the port and the delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, stated in the offer; Tripoli is quoted on request. Chocolate and chocolate-coated lines are quoted in a reefer for the warm months; Turkish delight, sugared almonds and jellies travel dry.
- Currency and payment
- Offers in US dollars. Bank transfer only: 50% with the order, 50% before the container leaves, against the loading photographs.
- Sourced on request
- Outside the core range we buy in what your list needs and load it in the same container: sugar free Turkish delight, bulk pistachio nuts, nuts and dried fruit in bulk, halva, instant coffee and spices.

Can a chocolatier buy dragées by the carton?
