Private label chocolate and confectionery from Gaziantep, under an Eswatini brand
Your brand on a tablet, a wrapped bar, a dragée doypack, a printed gift box, a Turkish delight carton or a jar of spread, all of it produced in Gaziantep. We build the English label content off our technical data sheet, read your artwork against it, and book the print run only once you have approved the file in writing.

Made in Gaziantep, sold under your brand.
In a market where nearly every pack on the shelf arrives from the same neighbour, a distributor is spending its own money building somebody else's brand. You carry the stock, the debtor and the risk, and the name the shopper remembers belongs to a factory in another country — one that also supplies the shop across the street, in the identical carton, at a price the two of you cannot tell apart. A private-label run is the least expensive way out of that: the same categories, made in our factory in Gaziantep, in a wrapper with your name and a barcode you control, ordered when you decide to order rather than when a regional warehouse decides to release stock.
We are the manufacturer and exporter. Our factory is in Gaziantep; we arrange the run, prepare the label content, check the lot before packing, consolidate the pallets and load one container that can mix your own-label lines with lines in our standard packs — which is what makes a first run affordable in a market this size. What stays yours to decide is the line, the format, the case weight, the label and the minimum, and each of those is written into the offer before anything is made. With no seaport in the country, the offer also sets out the point of entry, the delivery term and who moves the goods on the land leg.
Your label goes on lines produced in our own factory in Gaziantep.
Five formats, one container.
Nothing printed before you approve.
- 01
Lines, formats and case weights
You name the lines from the product pages and the pack format you have in mind. 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 you are aiming at. Anything we cannot confirm is left out of the offer instead of promised into it.
- 02
Label content in English
We prepare the content from our technical data sheet: 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 the data sheet.
- 03
Artwork and approval
You send the artwork; we check it against the label content and against what the pack can physically carry — panel sizes, barcode placement, the window for the date code — and you approve the final file in writing. Nothing is printed before that approval, and the approved file is what we run.
- 04
Production, loading and the inland leg
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. Since the last leg is by road, the offer sets out the point of entry, the delivery term and who moves the goods inland, next to the entry document set and the certificates that apply line by line.
What to know before the first list.
- Label, in English
- English carries the mandatory information: 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 against it before anything is printed. One discipline we do not bend: a line coated in vegetable fat is named a compound or a glaze on the data sheet, on the pack and in the price list, never chocolate. In the European Union such a coating may not be labelled chocolate at all, and we keep the two words apart on every route for the same reason — a buyer who finds out at the shelf finds out too late.
- The customs file, and what the importer holds
- The origin document and the rules that apply are named in the offer in the form valid on the day, rather than guessed at on this page. Preference arrangements and duty treatment change, and a figure printed here would be stale before it was useful; the clearing agent is the one who confirms it for the consignment in front of them. From our side you receive the technical data sheet per product, our certificates and the analysis report per line. Certificates — food safety, halal and kosher where they exist — are issued for our factory, and we name the holder and the certifying body per line. Registration and the entry of the consignment remain the importer's to hold and to file.
- Minimums
- Set per line and stated in the offer, because a printed tablet, a dragée colour and a boxed Turkish delight do not share one figure. The unit of sale is one full container, and your own-label lines can travel with lines in our standard packs, so a first run does not have to fill the box by itself — the usual reason a small market can start with an own brand at all.
- Certificates
- Held for our factory in Gaziantep: food-safety (FSSC 22000, ISO 22000, HACCP), halal and kosher certificates. We name the holder and the certifying body per line, and copies are available on request. We do not describe a certificate 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 — which matters more than usual where there is no earlier consignment from this origin to compare against.
- Lead time
- Stated per line in the offer and counted from the deposit and the approved artwork, not from the first enquiry. Printed packaging is usually what sets the pace, which is why the artwork step is closed before production is booked, and why seasonal runs are placed ahead of the season rather than into 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 called chocolate at all, and we hold the same line wherever the container goes. We will not print chocolate on a pack that is not chocolate, whatever the brief says, and 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, the packaging is printed for your order, and we do not offer your artwork or your product brief to another buyer.
- Currency and payment
- Offers in US dollars. Bank transfer: a deposit with the order and the balance before the container leaves, against the loading photographs. The split, the banking route and the document set are written into the offer and agreed 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.
Is a market this small worth an own-brand run?
Because the shelf is concentrated. When almost everything arrives from one source in the same packs, price is the only thing left to compete on, and the shop across the street is importing the identical carton at much the same cost. A pack in your name is the part of the range a competitor cannot import around, and it is what decides whether the reorder comes back to you or to whoever discounted last.
Who prepares the label?
We prepare the content in English 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.
Our first run is small and the country is landlocked. Can own-label lines travel with other stock?
Yes, and for a first run that is normally how it is done. One container can carry your own-label lines alongside lines in our standard packs, on one order and one document set, so the box is filled without committing to a large run of a single item. Because the journey ends overland, the offer names the port of entry, the delivery term, the inland leg and which lines are reefer lines.
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.
