Who We Supply and How Ordering Works
Raiva Food sells business to business, by the container or the mixed pallet load. If you are buying for a household or a single restaurant, we are not the right supplier — a local importer of ours will be.
Where the Photographs and Figures on This Site Come From
The product photographs and video across this site are our own, taken at the packing lines and cold stores we load from — not stock imagery. In the specification tables, figures confirmed for our own lots are shown plainly; rows tagged Indicative are published reference values for that commodity, not measurements of our lots, and are kept out of the structured data we publish to search engines. Ask us and we will send the current analysis for the lot you are quoted on.
See the photo and video galleryHow to Order from Raiva Food
Four steps, typically starting the same working day:
- Tell us what you need. Product, quantity and destination country, through the enquiry form or WhatsApp. Add your preferred packing and trade term if you already know them.
- We quote. You receive a price, the packing we would load, and what we can and cannot commit to on your route.
- We confirm the specification in writing. The agreed grade and specification are restated on the proforma invoice before you pay anything.
- We load and document the shipment. Export paperwork is prepared per shipment; pre-shipment inspection by your nominated agency is available at your cost.

Questions buyers ask
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Raiva Food export?
Dates and dried fruit — chiefly raisins, figs, apricots and prunes — fresh fruit and vegetables, Persian saffron, processed lines (aseptic tomato paste, juice concentrate, pickles, frozen potato, canned tuna and industrial milk powder) and mineral salt. The full catalogue runs to 55 product pages across 7 categories, each with the packing and specification we can confirm for that line.
Who does Raiva Food sell to?
Importers and wholesale distributors, supermarket and chain-store buyers, repackers, food manufacturers and food-service distributors buying by the container. We are a business-to-business exporter and do not sell retail quantities.
What is the minimum order quantity?
It depends on the product and the packing, so we confirm it per enquiry rather than publishing one figure. Most lines are quoted by the container, and whether that is a 20ft or a 40ft reefer changes the minimum. Tell us the product and destination and we will confirm the minimum for that line.
How do I get a price?
Send the product, quantity and destination country through the enquiry form or WhatsApp. We reply with a quotation and a proforma invoice. We do not publish list prices, because freight and packing differ by route and a published price would be out of date before you read it.
Which trade terms and shipping routes do you work on?
Terms are quoted per enquiry rather than published as a fixed list, because the available Incoterms® 2020 rules depend on how your goods travel. Raiva Food ships by sea from Bandar Abbas and overland by truck and rail through Iran's land borders — and the sea-only terms do not apply on an overland route. Name the term you want in your enquiry and we will confirm what we can offer on that route.
Which countries does Raiva Food export to?
We have shipped to the GCC (United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain), the CIS (Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus), Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan, Pakistan and China. Goods travel by sea from Bandar Abbas or overland by truck and rail, depending on the destination. If your country is not listed, ask — the route and trade term are confirmed per enquiry.
Is Raiva Food certified?
We publish only certificates we actually hold and can evidence, and we are working toward ISO 9001. Current certification and analysis documents are supplied directly with your quotation, so you receive the version valid on your shipment date rather than a scan that may have expired. Read our quality and compliance policy.
Why buy saffron, dates and raisins from Iran?
Because it is where a large share of the world crop is actually grown. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations reports that Iran produces 85–90 percent of the world's saffron and "remains the global leader and a benchmark setter for quality standards". Iran is also among the world's largest producers of dates and raisins. Sourcing at origin removes a trading layer between the grower and your warehouse.
How do I know the specifications you publish are accurate?
Because every figure is labelled for what it is. A plain figure on a product page is either a public reference — an HS code, a botanical name — or a value confirmed for our own product. A row tagged Indicative comes from a cited reference work for that crop rather than from our own lot, so it is not binding: the specification for your lot is restated on the proforma invoice before you pay. If your market requires a specific standard, including the FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius food standards, tell us at quotation stage: we would rather decline a requirement we cannot meet than agree to it and disappoint you at the port.
