Why organic food to export

Even though warehouses are air-conditioned, Most Asian cities are humid and many items spoil quickly before they can be sold. To offset these losses, merchants sometimes mark up the price of organic foods a few folds. Hence, we suggest that perishable items be omitted form our export products, due to its short and sensitive shelf life.


Nothing but the best

Importers in Asia look for high-quality health food products from many nations, and as the demand for health foods grows, U.S. exporters face increased competition.

Many Japanese and European health foods are produced using costly traditional production methods. For example, Japanese soy sauce is prepared by fermenting beans in wooden vats for two years. Consumers are willing to pay premium prices for these products.

But U.S. exporters have a huge advantage in the Asian market. They are considered one of the most developed and innovative sources of health foods. This is due to the strict FDA laws and regulations, which Asians have come to learn to trust. Asian customers will readily pick up a made in USA produce, just because it say “Produce of USA”.

Labeling requirnments for health foods

Import permits are required for some health food products such as brown rice or for any foods containing sweetening agents. Foods containing artificial sweeteners are prohibited.

Health food labels must contain the common name of the item; a description to indicate the true nature of the food; name and address of the local importer, agent or distributor; the country of origin and the expiration date.

In addition, specific labeling requirements cover the ingredients and nutrient contents of special foods such as diabetic food, foods low in sodium, low-protein food, gluten-free food and carbohydrate-modified food. Regulations also exist to prevent misleading statements and claims as to the presence of vitamins and minerals in foods.
