Arabian Ventures General Trading LLC (AVGT) is a Dubai-based wholesale importer and exporter of premium food commodities—including spices, nuts, grains, pulses, and dried fruits—serving B2B clients across the UAE and GCC region with bulk orders sourced directly from Vietnam, China, and India.
Arabian Ventures has established itself as a reliable bridge between global producers and Middle Eastern buyers. Operating from Dubai’s strategic trade hub, the company leverages the UAE’s world-class logistics infrastructure to facilitate seamless cross-border transactions. With a focus on bulk and wholesale orders only, AVGT caters specifically to food processors, distributors, retailers, and hospitality groups that require consistent, high-volume supply.
The company’s core strength lies in its direct sourcing relationships. By procuring directly from farms and processing facilities in Vietnam (for pepper and cashews), China (for garlic, ginger, and star anise), and India (for cumin, turmeric, and pulses), Arabian Ventures eliminates intermediaries. This model ensures competitive pricing, traceability, and quality control—critical factors in the volatile global food commodity market.
Arabian Ventures specializes in both whole and ground spices essential to regional cooking. Their portfolio includes black pepper (from Vietnam’s Dak Lak province), cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom, and chili varieties. The company maintains strict moisture content standards (typically 10–12% for most spices) to prevent mold during storage and transit. Bulk orders start from 500 kg per variety, with lead times of 14–21 days from order confirmation.
The company supplies raw and roasted nuts including cashews (W180, W240, W320 grades), almonds, pistachios, and walnuts. Their dried fruit range covers raisins, dates, apricots, and figs. All products are sorted and graded according to international standards (e.g., USDA or EU specifications). Arabian Ventures recommends clients request lab analysis certificates for aflatoxin levels and moisture content before finalizing orders.
Arabian Ventures imports basmati and non-basmati rice from India, along with lentils (red, green, black), chickpeas, and various beans. Grains are typically shipped in 25 kg or 50 kg polypropylene bags, with container loads ranging from 20 to 26 metric tons depending on the commodity. The company advises buyers to consider seasonal price fluctuations—lentil prices, for example, often dip 8–12% during Indian harvest months (March–May).
Contact Arabian Ventures via their website (avgtuae.com) or call +971 50 529 7000. Provide specific details: commodity type, grade/quality requirements, quantity (minimum 500 kg), packaging preference, and delivery location within the UAE or GCC.
The company will issue a proforma invoice within 24–48 hours. For first-time buyers, AVGT offers sample shipments (at cost, refundable upon order) to verify quality. Samples typically arrive within 5–7 business days via courier.
Once samples are approved, confirm the order with a 30% advance payment (bank transfer or letter of credit). The remaining 70% is due upon shipment or delivery, depending on the agreed Incoterm (FOB, CIF, or DDP).
Arabian Ventures provides real-time tracking for all shipments. For UAE clients, delivery occurs within 2–5 business days after customs clearance. GCC clients should expect 7–14 days for cross-border logistics.
Dubai’s position as a global re-export hub gives Arabian Ventures distinct advantages. The Jebel Ali Port and Dubai Airport Freezone (DAFZA) offer duty-free storage and re-export facilities, reducing costs for clients who need to redistribute goods to other Gulf markets. Additionally, the UAE’s 5% VAT (with zero-rating on exports) makes it cost-effective for re-export operations.
Arabian Ventures also benefits from Dubai’s robust food safety regulations. All imports must comply with UAE.S GSO standards, including mandatory testing for pesticide residues, heavy metals, and microbiological contaminants. The company maintains a dedicated quality assurance team that pre-checks shipments before dispatch, reducing rejection risks at customs.
