Cases of chocolate, dragées and Turkish delight consolidated for one container in Gaziantep
Who we quote for

One container, every line, from Gaziantep.

We quote for UK importers and wholesalers of Turkish, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean foods, for sweet wholesalers and cash and carry buyers adding a Turkish range, for halal confectionery wholesale lists, and for retailers and brands that want chocolate, dragées or Turkish delight made under their own label. If you are looking for wholesale chocolate suppliers UK importers can buy from, a wholesale chocolate supplier, sweet suppliers or sweets manufacturers, a confectionery manufacturer in Türkiye, a chocolate importer UK wholesalers work with, or the Turkish food wholesalers UK grocers already know, this is what we quote for. The unit of sale is one full container, mixed across as many lines as you like.

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.

We supply direct from our own factory in Gaziantep, the city we work in.

  • Importers and wholesalers of Turkish, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean foods, from the Turkish food wholesale trade in London to the Turkish food suppliers UK grocers buy from in Birmingham and Manchester
  • Sweet wholesalers, cash and carry and sweet shop suppliers adding Turkish delight, sugared almonds, dragées or halal sweets to a pick and mix or wholesale sweets list
  • Retailers and brands that want a line made under their own label, own brand or white label

United Kingdom notes

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
An English label. For own label we prepare the label content to UK rules: the ingredient list with allergens emphasised, the nutrition declaration, metric net quantity, best-before wording and the name and address of the UK food business responsible for the product. Your artwork is checked against it before anything is printed.
Halal
Halal sweets wholesale and halal chocolate wholesale are a large part of the UK trade. Halal certificates are held for our factory; the offer names the certificate holder for every line and copies are available on request, so a halal confectionery wholesale list is built from named lines, not assumptions. A line without a certificate is stated as such.
Trade agreement
The United Kingdom and Türkiye have a trade agreement. Preferential treatment depends on the origin proof for each product; the offer states the tariff line and what applies on the day, so the landed cost is known before you order.
Importer responsibilities
The UK importer is the food business responsible for the product on the market; the producer does not register with a UK authority. What your file needs from our side, the technical data sheet and lot traceability, travels with the offer; certificate copies are available on request.
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 label.
Turkish delight
British shoppers know Turkish delight first as a chocolate bar with a rose centre, a British confection. Boxed Turkish delight, chocolate covered Turkish delight and the pistachio roll are the Turkish products behind the searches, and they are on the Turkish delight page. Bulk Turkish delight for sweet shops travels in lined cartons; sugar free Turkish delight is sourced on request.
Sweet shops and pick and mix
The wholesale sweets trade, cash and carry, sweet shop wholesalers and pick and mix, buys by the carton: bulk Turkish delight, sugared almonds, chocolate dragées, jellies and popping candy. Case weight and pallet plan are stated per line in the offer; wrapped and unwrapped formats are on the product pages.
Product names
UK chocolate composition rules define names such as milk chocolate and family milk chocolate. Under own label, the name on the pack is checked against them before printing.
Seasonal
Ramadan and Eid ranges, wedding favours and Christmas gift boxes are quoted ahead of the season; the lead time per line is in the offer.
Route
Sea freight from Mersin to Felixstowe, Southampton or London Gateway, and Liverpool for the north; road freight by trailer through Europe is quoted on request when the list suits it. The delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, is stated in the offer. Chocolate and chocolate-coated products travel at +18/+20 °C; for the warm months we quote a reefer.
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: baklava from Gaziantep, sugar free Turkish delight, bulk pistachio nuts, nuts and dried fruit in bulk (hazelnuts, almonds, dried apricots and figs), freeze-dried fruit in bulk, halva, instant coffee, powdered drinks, spices and fruit juice.

Own label chocolate and confectionery for UK brands

Looking for the private label chocolate manufacturers UK retailers use, or an own label chocolate route outside the UK? We put our own lines under your brand: tablets, bars, doypacks, gift boxes, Turkish delight boxes and jars, with the label content prepared to UK rules and nothing printed before you approve it.

Questions

Asked before the first list.

Do you work with importers in the United Kingdom?

We quote for importers, wholesalers, cash and carry buyers and own-label brands in the United Kingdom. Send the product references, the quantities you have in mind and the destination port; the written offer follows within two working days.

Do you supply wholesale sweets and chocolate to UK wholesalers and cash and carry?

Yes. We quote for sweet wholesalers, confectionery wholesalers, cash and carry buyers and Turkish food wholesalers in the United Kingdom. The unit of sale is one mixed container, delivered FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, with the pallet plan and the tariff line for each product stated in the offer.

Are the products halal?

Halal certificates are held for our factory. The offer names the certificate holder for every line and copies are available on request; a line without a certificate is stated as such, so a halal wholesale list is built from named lines.

What does importing food into the UK from Türkiye involve on your side?

The importer is the food business responsible in the UK. From our side you receive our technical data sheet per product, copies of our certificates, lot traceability, the origin proof under the UK–Türkiye trade agreement, and the commercial documents listed on the how we work page.

Can you make our own label Turkish delight or chocolate for the UK?

Yes — private label is one of our core services. We prepare the label content to UK rules, you approve the artwork in writing, and the minimum per line is stated in the offer.

What is the minimum order?

One full container, 20 ft or 40 ft, mixed across the lines you choose. The minimum per line is written into 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.
