B2B procurement note
What buyers can confirm before ANV prepares a quotation
ANV quotes food export projects by product scope, packaging format, order volume and destination market. Clear request details help the export team match the right facility documents, sample route and shipment terms before commercial pricing is issued.
Packaging and volume
Indicate retail, foodservice, bulk or OEM packaging, then add expected cartons, kilograms, pallets or container volume. MOQ and lead time depend on that combination.
Market documents
List destination country, port, certificates and buyer onboarding documents early. HACCP, ISO, Halal, Kosher, COA, health or phytosanitary documents are confirmed by product and facility scope.
Shipment terms
FOB Cat Lai, CIF, CFR and CIP options are reviewed with the requested route. Mixed orders, samples and artwork files are handled after feasibility is confirmed.
When these points are ready, ANV can return with a cleaner quotation, realistic sampling timeline, artwork checklist and document package matched to the buyer's destination market.
We specialize in exporting Vietnamese food ingredients and retail products to European Union countries, ensuring compliance with strict EU import directives.
Zero-Tariff Import via EVFTA
Under the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA), import tariffs for processed tropical fruits, coffee, and agricultural products are progressively reduced to 0%. To claim this duty-free status, ANV prepares and issues the official EUR.1 Certificate of Origin with every shipment.
EU Compliance Requirements
European buyers must meet rigid standards for technical parameters:
- Pesticide Residues (MRLs): All shipments undergo independent lab testing (GC-MS/LC-MS) to ensure compliance with the strict European Maximum Residue Limits.
- Sulphite Controls: For soft dried fruits, sulphite (preservative) levels must be carefully controlled and declared, strictly meeting the EU limit of <2000 ppm (or completely unsweetened options).
- Food Labeling (LMIV): Labels must comply with Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011, detailing allergen warnings, clear nutritional tables, and manufacturer information.
