What stays the same on every offer.
Rates and rules change; the quotation states what applies on the day. These points do not change.
- Standards, permit and entry
- Imported food is checked against the Zambian standard, and the importer holds the import permit where the line needs one and the registration with the authorities. We supply what the entry needs, the technical data sheet, our certificates and the analysis report per line and states what applies to each line on the day.
- Label
- An English label: the name of the food, the ingredient list with allergens, metric net weight, storage, the production and expiry dates and the name and address of the importer. For lines in our standard packs we confirm what the export pack carries; for private label we prepare the label content and check your artwork against it before anything is printed.
- Customs and the inland leg
- There is no free trade agreement between Zambia and Türkiye; the offer states the tariff line for each product and the duty that applies on the day. The container clears at Dar es Salaam, Durban or Beira and travels inland to Lusaka by road or rail under transit; the offer states the route, the delivery term and where the reefer chain ends, so the landed cost at Lusaka is known before you order.
- The supermarket shelf and the tuck shop
- Zambia has two shelves. The supermarkets in Lusaka and the Copperbelt have chillers and take chocolate: the tablet, the boxed assortment, the pistachio end and the Dubai style bar in our standard packs, in a reefer to the port and a cool chain inland. The tuck shop and the market stall have no cooling and take the wafer, the wrapped bar, the compound-coated line and wrapped sweets by the kilo bag, dry. The offer states which lines are which, and one container carries both shelves on their own pallets.
- Dubai chocolate, from Türkiye
- The pistachio and kadayif bar Zambia has started to search for, with the price question next to it, 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, for the supermarket chiller and the gift shelf; pistachio cream in jars travels with it.
- Turkish delight
- Boxed Turkish delight from Gaziantep, the pistachio roll and chocolate covered lokum for the supermarket and the gift shelf; the Turkish delight page lists the groups, and plain lines travel dry, which matters on a road to Lusaka. Most lines are available in our standard packs, so an importer can start without artwork.
- Route
- Sea freight from Mersin to Dar es Salaam, Durban or Beira, with the transshipment port, the delivery term, FCA Gaziantep, FOB Mersin, CIF or DAP, the transit and the inland leg to Lusaka stated in the offer. Chocolate and chocolate-coated lines are quoted in a reefer to the port and need a cool chain inland; compound lines are stated as such; 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: 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 Zambia?
We quote for food importers, distributors, Lusaka wholesalers, Copperbelt distributors and private-label brands in Zambia. Send the product references, the quantities you have in mind and the port you clear through; the written offer follows within two working days.
Is the chocolate real chocolate or compound?
Both exist, for different shelves. The offer states per line whether it is chocolate or compound-coated, so an importer can put the right line in the supermarket chiller and the right line on the tuck shop shelf.
How does the container reach Lusaka?
It clears at Dar es Salaam, Durban or Beira and travels inland under transit by road or rail. The offer states the route, the term and where the reefer chain ends; chocolate lines need a cool chain inland.
Is the container a reefer?
For chocolate lines, yes, to the port, with a cool chain inland; compound lines and dry lines are quoted as the offer states.
Can you make our own brand for the Zambian market?
Yes — private label is one of our core services. We prepare the label content, 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.
