Home / Private label / Burkina Faso
Made in Gaziantep, sold under your brand.
A distributor here sells someone else's wrapper. The chocolate column on this market is small and fed largely by one neighbour and two distant sources; more than half of the sugar confectionery column arrives from a single origin a long way off. In that picture the thing worth owning is the name on the pack — a tablet, a bar, a dragée doypack, a wedding carton or a Turkish delight box carrying your brand, made in our factory in Gaziantep, shipped on your order rather than bought from whoever imported it first.
We are the manufacturer and exporter. Our factory is in Gaziantep; we arrange the run, prepare the label content in French, check the lot before packing, consolidate the pallets and load one container. Several lines, one order, one document set, one arrival. And because the goods finish their journey by road from a port in a neighbouring country, the port of entry, the inland leg, the delivery term and the paperwork go into the offer alongside the things that are yours to decide: the line, the format, the label and the minimum.
Your label goes on lines produced in our own factory in Gaziantep.
Five formats, one container.
Nothing printed before you approve.
- 01
Lines and formats
You name the lines from the product pages and the pack format you want. We confirm which of them can be run under your brand, at what minimum, in what lead time, and whether the line is chocolate or compound for the shelf and the climate you have in mind. Anything that cannot be confirmed is left out of the offer rather than promised into it.
- 02
Label content
We prepare the French label content, with English alongside if you want it: the name of the food, the ingredient list with allergens, metric net weight, storage conditions, the importer's name and address, and the fields for the production and expiry dates we print on the pack. Every figure comes from our technical data sheet.
- 03
Artwork
You send the artwork; we check it against the label content and against what the pack can physically carry, and you approve the final version in writing. Nothing is printed before that approval, and the approved file is what we run.
- 04
Production and shipping
We run the line, check the lot before packing, consolidate and photograph the pallets, and the container leaves — a reefer for chocolate lines through the warm months, dry for Turkish delight, dragées and jellies. The port of entry, the inland road leg, the delivery term and the document set are named in the offer, with our certificates per line where they apply.
What to know before the first list.
- Label, in French
- The mandatory information in French, with English alongside where your file or your shelf wants it: the name of the food, the ingredient list with allergens, metric net weight, storage conditions, the importer's name and address, and the date marking. For lines in our standard packs we confirm what the export pack already carries; for own-label lines we prepare the content from our technical data sheet and check your artwork before anything is printed. One discipline we do not bend: a line coated in vegetable fat is not chocolate. In the European Union it may not be labelled as chocolate at all, and we keep the two words apart everywhere for the same reason — a buyer who discovers the difference at the shelf discovers it too late.
- The customs file, and what the importer holds
- The rules that apply and the origin document are named in the offer as they stand on the day, rather than guessed at on a web page that ages. From our side you receive the technical data sheet per product, our certificates and the analysis report per line. Certificates are issued for our factory — food safety, halal and kosher — and the certifying body is named per line; lines carrying ingredients of animal origin, gelatine in jellies above all, travel with our halal certificate. The importer holds the registration and files the consignment.
- Minimums
- Set per line and stated in the offer. The unit of sale is one full container, which can mix your own-label lines with lines in our standard packs, so a first run does not have to fill the box on its own.
- Certificates
- Held for our factory in Gaziantep: food-safety (FSSC 22000, ISO 22000, HACCP), halal and kosher certificates. The holder and the certifying body are named per line and copies are available on request. We do not issue certificates ourselves, and we do not describe one we do not hold.
- Samples
- Free of charge from our running production; you cover the courier, paid before dispatch. Samples come off the running line, so what you taste is what the run makes.
- Lead time
- Stated per line in the offer and counted from the deposit and the approved artwork, not from the first enquiry. Printed packaging usually sets the pace, which is why the artwork step is settled before production is booked — and on this route the inland leg after the port is counted into the plan rather than discovered at the end of it.
- What the label may not say
- A vegetable-fat coating is a compound or a glaze and is labelled as one; in the European Union it may not be labelled chocolate at all. We will not print chocolate on a pack that is not, whatever the brief says, and the price list keeps the two apart for the same reason. It is the one point on which we will hold up an artwork approval.
- Brand and artwork
- Your brand and your artwork stay yours. We run what you approved and the packaging is printed for your order; we do not offer your artwork or your recipe brief to another buyer.
- Currency and payment
- Offers in US dollars. Bank transfer: half with the order, the balance before the container leaves, against the loading photographs. The banking route that applies on the day is named in the offer and agreed in writing before production starts.
Asked by brands first.
Are you the manufacturer?
Yes. Chocolate, dragées, pistachio and hazelnut creams, popping candy and Turkish delight are made in our own factory in Gaziantep, and we have exported since 2002. We run your private-label lines, check the lot before packing and load the container at our factory.
Why put our own brand on it in a market this size?
Because the shelf is fed by a small number of sources and a distributor who imports from them is reselling a name that is not his. Owning the wrapper means owning the format, the case weight and the reorder, and it stops the line you built demand for being sold beside you by whoever imported it next.
Who prepares the label?
We prepare the content in French, with English alongside if you want it, from our technical data sheet. You place it in your artwork, add the importer's details, and approve the final version in writing before anything is printed.
What is the minimum?
It is set per line and written into the offer, because it differs between a printed tablet, a dragée colour and a boxed Turkish delight. We do not publish a single figure on this page, since a number that is wrong for your line is worse than no number at all.
Can you run dragées in our colours for the wedding trade?
Yes, and it is the run we are asked about most for this market. Colour is a separate production run rather than a finishing touch, so the minimum per colour and the lead time are stated per colour in the offer, and seasonal quantities are quoted ahead of the season rather than during it.
Are you a private label chocolate manufacturer?
Yes. Your label is printed in our own factory in Gaziantep after you approve the artwork, and the minimum per line is stated in the offer. Prices are not published; they come in the written offer.
