Markets We Serve
Chihade International exports U.S. food products from our SQF-certified facility in Lawrenceville, Georgia to distributors, foodservice operators, retailers and franchise groups worldwide. Below are a few of the markets we serve — if yours is not listed, we would still like to hear from you.
Middle East & Gulf
The Gulf is our longest-standing export region. Each market has its own regulator, halal regime and labelling rules, and we prepare all of it in Georgia before the container ships.
Asia & Pacific
Across most of Asia a licensed local importer of record is legally required — retailers and foodservice operators cannot import directly. That makes a strong distributor partner essential rather than optional.
Europe
European buyers tend to want smaller, more frequent mixed loads and full documentation up front. Consolidation from a single U.S. origin point is usually what makes the economics work.
Africa
Growing modern-retail and hospitality demand, with import documentation and shelf-life planning doing most of the heavy lifting on a successful shipment.
Latin America & the Caribbean
Short transit times from the U.S. East Coast and Gulf make this one of the most practical regions to start a programme in, particularly for chilled and short-shelf-life lines.
