Services

What we handle for you

You can use us as a supplier or as your office in Egypt. Either way the work below is included in the price — we do not invoice separately for inspection or documentation.

Sourcing & Supplier Vetting

You send a specification; we come back with two or three costed options from producers we have physically visited — not a forwarded price list.

  • Farm, mill or factory visited before we quote
  • Two to three costed alternatives per enquiry
  • Samples couriered to you before the main order
  • Landed-cost breakdown, not just FOB

Quality Control & Pre-shipment Inspection

Every consignment is inspected while it is still on our side of the water, and you approve it before the container is sealed.

  • Grading and sizing against your written spec
  • Numbered photos and video of the loading
  • Third-party lab analysis arranged on request
  • SGS, Bureau Veritas or Intertek inspection if you prefer

Export & Import Documentation

The paperwork is where most first-time shipments get stuck. We prepare the full set and send you scans for approval before originals are couriered.

  • Certificate of origin attested by the Chamber of Commerce
  • Phytosanitary and health certificates
  • EUR.1 for EU-preference shipments where eligible
  • Legalisation at the destination consulate when required

Freight & Logistics

Booked through carriers calling Alexandria and El Dekheila weekly, with reefer temperature set and logged for perishable loads.

  • FCL and LCL sea freight, air freight for samples and urgent lots
  • Reefer containers with pre-cooling and temperature logs
  • Land freight to Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Libya
  • Marine cargo insurance arranged on CIF terms

Customs Clearance

Clearance at Alexandria, El Dekheila, Damietta and Cairo airport, including ACID / NAFEZA registration for inbound cargo.

  • ACID number issued on the NAFEZA single-window system
  • HS classification reviewed to avoid re-assessment
  • GOEIC inspection and release follow-up
  • Demurrage kept down by filing before vessel arrival

Private Label & Packing

Ship under your own brand with artwork, labelling and retail packs prepared to your destination market’s labelling rules.

  • Artwork adapted to EU FIC or GCC labelling requirements
  • Arabic, English and multilingual label sets
  • Barcode, batch code and best-before printing
  • Pallet configuration to your warehouse requirement

From enquiry to arrival

How an order runs

Six stages, in this order, on every shipment. Nothing moves to the next stage without your written approval.

  1. 01

    Enquiry

    Send the product, quantity, destination port and Incoterm. A reply within one working day.

  2. 02

    Offer & sample

    You get a costed offer with packing details and a specification sheet, plus samples if the order justifies it.

  3. 03

    Contract & payment terms

    Sales contract signed. We work on L/C at sight, CAD or an agreed advance — whatever your bank is comfortable with.

  4. 04

    Production & inspection

    Goods prepared, graded and inspected. You approve photos before the container is sealed.

  5. 05

    Shipment & documents

    Container loaded and booked. Draft documents to you for checking, then originals released per contract.

  6. 06

    Arrival support

    We stay on the shipment until it clears at your end and follow up on any discrepancy in writing.

Product, quantity, destination port, Incoterm. That is enough for a costed offer — you get one back within one working day.
