Direct supply from state-of-the-art factories, compliance certified for domestic and export requirements in Turkey.
Hebei Abiding Co., Ltd., established in 2005, is a prominent global supplier of high-quality foods and food ingredients. We have built an integrated supply chain ecosystem encompassing raw material sourcing, state-of-the-art agricultural production, stringent laboratory testing, and robust international logistics, specifically calibrated to serve the highly demanding Turkish food manufacturing sector.
Our core capabilities range from manufacturing vegetable proteins and organic food concentrates to offering direct-to-factory agricultural goods. With over two decades of localized expertise, we specialize in overcoming the technical barriers, compliance requirements, and tariff constraints that typically affect B2B trading between global manufacturers and Turkish purchasing departments.
As a certified EU & NOP organic products supplier with more than 20 years of hands-on experience in the global organic food sector, we have consistently ranked as one of the largest exporters of organic tomato paste to Europe and the Middle East. By leveraging our own organic agricultural fields and decentralized processing centers across premium tomato-growing regions, we guarantee that all bulk shipments strictly conform to both Turkish and European food quality standard directives.
Turkey is a prominent global logistics hub and food processing powerhouse. To support Turkish manufacturing plants looking to export finished goods (such as tomato ketchup, pizza sauces, and canned dishes) to the EU, UK, and GCC markets, we supply premium quality tomato raw materials that clear the strict phytosanitary and pesticide residue limits demanded by western retail chains.
The Republic of Turkey possesses a robust, highly developed agricultural sector and ranks among the top global producers of processed tomato goods. Famous regions such as the Karacabey Plain in Bursa, Torbalı in Izmir, and the fertile plains of Salihli in Manisa host modern tomato factories that process millions of tons of fresh tomatoes every season into paste, canned whole-peeled tomatoes, and ketchup. However, the domestic industry frequently faces severe constraints, creating a high demand for external raw material imports:
By supplying certified EU & NOP organic tomato paste and highly specialized tomato powders directly to ports like Ambarlı (Istanbul), Izmir, and Mersin, we provide Turkish food brands with the raw materials needed to secure their global export supply chains.
The global tomato processing sector is highly concentrated. Major production zones include the Central Valley of California, the Mediterranean Basin (primarily Italy, Spain, and Turkey), and the high-yield tomato cultivation belts in northwestern China (Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia). Sourcing from the Chinese tomato belt offers massive commercial benefits for global manufacturers, including Turkish food brands:
Due to the unique climate of Xinjiang—featuring long daylight hours, high temperature differentials between day and night, and clean meltwater irrigation from the Tianshan mountains—our processing tomatoes exhibit superior natural parameters. The tomatoes possess deep red coloration (high *a/b* color index values, typically >2.1), high natural sugar-to-acid ratios, and exceptional lycopene content. Furthermore, because of the dry climate, agricultural mold development is rare, allowing us to consistently export bulk tomato paste with a Howard Mold Count (HMC) of less than 40%, surpassing European food standard requirements.
Sustaining premium quality in bulk agricultural processing requires constant innovation. Our factories implement a strict, data-driven processing line designed to retain the natural properties of the fresh tomato while ensuring microbiological stability. Below is our processing roadmap:
Fresh tomatoes undergo multi-stage flotation washing and manual selection sorting to remove immature, damaged, or yellow fruits, ensuring optimal raw material inputs.
Tomatoes are processed via Cold Break (CB) at 65-75°C to preserve natural color, or Hot Break (HB) at 85-95°C to protect natural pectins for thick paste viscosity.
Using advanced multi-stage falling-film evaporators, water is gently evaporated under vacuum conditions to prevent heat damage and preserve natural lycopene.
The concentrated paste is processed via tube-in-tube sterilizers and filled under sterile conditions into 220-liter multi-layer aseptic bags inside steel drums.
Leverage our B2B industrial offerings to secure raw materials and scale your business operations.
We supply high-Brix (36-38% and 28-30%) tomato paste in 220L aseptic steel drums, perfect for Turkish packers looking to dilute, blend, and repackage for regional distribution.
For Turkish export companies targeting EU and US markets, we provide certified EU & NOP organic paste, ensuring compliance with strict international pesticide residue limits.
We supply premium-grade tomato powder for spice mixers, instant soup manufacturers, and snack companies across industrial cities like Gaziantep and Konya.

In Turkey, tomato ingredients serve diverse consumer and industrial needs. Our wholesale tomato paste and tomato derivatives are widely used across four primary Turkish food sectors:
1. Industrial Salça and Sauce Production: Domestically, Turkish households consume large quantities of "Salça"—a thick, concentrated tomato or pepper paste used in traditional cooking. Sourcing our bulk 36-38% Hot Break tomato paste helps Turkish food packagers produce high-yield, rich-texture consumer-facing jars and tin cans under local or retail store private labels.
2. Ketchup & Dipping Sauce Formulation: Leading Turkish sauce brands in metropolitan centers like Istanbul and Izmir require consistent viscosity and deep red color. Our Cold Break tomato paste preserves the natural taste profile, making it the perfect foundation for high-speed automated bottling lines.
3. Ready-to-Eat Canned Foods (Konserve): Turkey is a major producer of canned foods, exporting products like stuffed vine leaves, braised beans, and Mediterranean vegetable stews. Our canned whole-peeled tomatoes and diced tomatoes in 220L drums provide the high structural integrity required to withstand the high-temperature retorting process without breaking down.
4. Seasoning Mixes and Instant Food Powders: Turkish spice suppliers in Gaziantep and surrounding culinary hubs blend our spray-dried tomato powder with local herbs, sumac, and chili flakes to create dry marinades, instant soup bases, and seasoning powders for the snack food market.
We supply two main types of bulk tomato paste: Cold Break (CB) 28-30% Brix and Hot Break (HB) 36-38% Brix. Cold Break is ideal for products requiring raw tomato flavor notes and bright color, such as tomato juice and reconstituted retail pastes. Hot Break is optimized for thick consistency and binding properties, making it the industry standard for ketchup, pasta sauces, and gravies. Both types are packed in 220L aseptic bags inside steel drums.
Yes. Our manufacturing facilities hold ISO 22000, HACCP, Halal, and Kosher certifications. For Turkish clients targeting European Union exports, our products strictly comply with European standards regarding pesticide residue limits, heavy metals, and allergen controls. Our organic range is fully certified by EU & NOP organic regulatory bodies, ensuring complete compliance with the Turkish Food Codex (Türk Gıda Kodeksi).
We routinely ship via major international shipping lines from Tianjin or Qingdao ports. Average maritime transit times to primary Turkish ports like Mersin, Izmir (Alsancak/Aliağa), and Istanbul (Ambarlı) range from 28 to 35 days. We provide comprehensive export documentation, including Ocean Bills of Lading, Certificate of Analysis (COA), Phytosanitary Certificates, Packing Lists, and Commercial Invoices.
Absolutely. Due to the high-sunlight growing conditions of our tomato fields, we achieve an exceptional color index (a/b ratio > 2.1). Our advanced sorting and washing technologies allow us to supply batches with a Howard Mold Count (HMC) of less than 40% (often below 30% depending on the specific batch), matching the quality standards of major global food brands like Nestle.
Our bulk aseptic tomato paste in 220L steel drums has a shelf life of 24 months from the production date when stored in a cool, dry place. For optimal color and flavor preservation over long periods, we recommend storing the drums in refrigerated environments at temperatures between 4°C and 10°C, especially during hot summer months in Turkish warehousing zones.
Yes, while our primary volume is in bulk industrial packaging (220L drums, 1000L IBCs), we also support retail packing projects. We provide contract packaging (OEM) for canned tomato paste in tins (70g, 400g, 800g, 2.2kg, and 4.5kg) or sachet packets, styled with custom branding for distributors in Turkey, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East.
