Description

Established in 2005, the company initially specialised in import and distribution of tea and coffee brands and mainly sold to Ikea stores in Turkey. Today, they spread out to other food products, primarily from Sweden and other Scandinavian countries, but also from other markets.

They are still the main supplier of Ikea stores’ food & drink section, but they also sell to major multiple retailers, independents and foodservice sectors. Their current portfolio covers over 100 different products; of note are Stroopwafels, Jordans cereals, Surgital, Anton Berg, etc.

Import duty on black and green tea is very high in Turkey, but there's a quota allowance for EU countries, which is limited to 200 tons per year. This company has been allocated a decent amount and would like to import tea from the UK to sell both in retail and food service channels.
