A. Procurement / Trade

A1. What is the MOQ and lead time?
MOQ is typically 1 × 20' reefer container (~10–12 MT in 10 kg cartons) or 1 × 40' reefer (~21–23 MT). Lead time ~7–15 days after order confirmation and deposit, subject to cut size, packaging, and certification (HALAL / KOSHER). Main loading ports: Fuzhou / Xiamen / Qingdao, China.

A2. What incoterms and payment terms do you offer?
We trade on FOB / CIF / CFR. Payment is typically T/T (30% deposit, 70% against B/L copy) or confirmed L/C at sight for qualified buyers.

A3. Can different products be mixed in one container, and do you offer OEM?
Yes. Mixed loading with other frozen items (including seafood and vegetables) is available subject to compatible storage temperature and carton dimensions. We also support OEM, private label, and custom spec (cut size, packaging, oil type, labeling).

B. Documents / Compliance

B1. What documents accompany each shipment?
Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Health Certificate, Certificate of Analysis (COA), HALAL / KOSHER (if applicable), Certificate of Origin, and microbiology / pesticide-residue analysis.

B2. Which certifications apply to this product?
HACCP, BRC, IFS, ISO 22000 as standard; HALAL and KOSHER available on request; GAP / SEDEX audit supported. MSC / ASC do not apply (see D2).

B3. What is the country of origin and how is traceability managed?
Country of origin: China (CN), processed from frying-grade potatoes sourced from contracted farms. Each carton carries a batch code tracing back to the farm lot and processing records for full traceability.

C. Specs / Logistics

C1. What cut sizes and forms are supplied?
Cut sizes: 6×6 mm (shoestring), 7×7 mm, 9×9 mm, 10×10 mm (3/8" straight), 12×12 mm (7/16"), 14×14 mm, plus crinkle and wedge. Length is natural / standard; custom dimensions on request.

C2. What freeze type and oil treatment apply?
Par-fried then IQF (free-flowing individual sticks, no clumping). Residual oil < 3–4% after par-fry; ~96% potato + ~4% vegetable oil (palm kernel typical). Glaze-free.

C3. What packaging and shelf life apply?
500 g × 20, 1 kg × 10, 2 kg × 5, 2.5 kg × 4, 5 kg × 2, 10 kg × 1 carton; 625 kg/tote available. Shelf life 24 months at −18 °C (unopened). HS code 2004.10.

D. Technical Clarification

D1. Is this the same as raw frozen potato (HS 0710), and what does "par-fried" mean?
No. Our fries are par-fried (blanched then lightly fried) and frozen — classified HS 2004.10 (prepared / preserved frozen potatoes, ready to finish-cook). Raw, un-fried frozen potato sticks fall under HS 0710 (uncooked frozen vegetables). Confirm the HS on the contract: par-fried fries command a different spec, price, and cooking requirement than raw frozen potato.

D2. Why are MSC / ASC not listed — which certs actually matter for fries?
MSC / ASC are fishery and aquaculture sustainability certs and do not apply to potato products. For frozen fries, the meaningful certs are food-safety systems (HACCP / BRC / IFS / ISO 22000) plus HALAL / KOSHER for market access, and GAP / SEDEX audits for responsible sourcing. "Sustainability" for fries means farm sourcing, water/energy stewardship, and third-party audit — not a fish stock label.

D3. IQF vs. block frozen, and which potato variety is used?
IQF freezes individual sticks free-flowing — no clumping, ideal for retail and portion control. Block frozen is a solid mass, lower unit cost, for foodservice re-cut. We use frying-grade, high-solid potato varieties (e.g., Russet / Burbank) selected for low sugar and consistent golden crispness — the variety directly affects finish color and oil uptake, so confirm the grade on the spec sheet.
