Wholesale Persian Grocery Lines: Tea, Basmati Rice and Shirin Asal
Alongside its fresh produce lines, Shaly Foods Inc. supplies the Persian grocery aisle for Canadian retailers. Three standing lines, all sold by the case from the Vancouver warehouse and shipped across British Columbia, Alberta and the rest of Canada. Trade accounts only.
The three lines
Each line has its own page, with the blends, brands and flavours set out in full. They all sit on one account, so a case from each travels on the same delivery.
Mahmood & Rizq Basmati rice
Two brands. Two price points on the shelf without splitting a facing across half a dozen labels.
Shirin Asal confectionery
Biscuits and Hibye filled cookies, HIT wafers, cakes, buttered toffee eclairs, Aramis pashmak and shekarpareh saffron shortbread.
Roasted pumpkin seeds
Salted, lemon and saffron, sold by the pound. The bulk-bin item on this side of the account, ordered with the rest of the line.
How the account works
Grocery and produce run on one account, one delivery and one invoice. A store restocking tea and biscuits puts fresh product on the same order, and the case minimum is counted across all of it rather than per line. Availability and pricing move with the shipping schedule, so the line sheet is quoted rather than published.
What Persian grocery lines does Shaly Foods carry wholesale?
Three standing lines plus pumpkin seeds: Shamshiri tea in cardamom, Persian black and Earl Grey; Mahmood and Rizq Basmati rice; and the Shirin Asal range of biscuits, HIT wafers, cakes, buttered toffee eclairs, Aramis pashmak and shekarpareh.
Is there a minimum order for Persian grocery products?
Yes: $300 to $500, depending on your shipping area. Everything is sold by the case, and the minimum is counted across the whole account, so tea, rice, confectionery and fresh produce all count toward the same order.
Do you sell Persian groceries to individual customers?
No. Wholesale accounts only: grocers, specialty markets, restaurants and distributors buying to resell or serve. Shaly Foods does not sell single cases to individual shoppers.
How do I get current pricing?
Pricing is not published here, because the line sheet moves with stock and the shipping schedule. Ask for the current price list through the contact form and Shaly Foods sends it back, usually the same business day.
Where does Shaly Foods ship Persian groceries?
Metro Vancouver on Shaly Foods' own trucks; the BC Interior and Vancouver Island on scheduled routes; Alberta and the Prairies on LTL and full pallets; Ontario and east for standing volume accounts.
Do you deliver Persian groceries to Surrey, North Vancouver and Coquitlam?
Yes. Surrey, North Vancouver (Lonsdale) and the Tri-Cities (Coquitlam, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam) are core Metro Vancouver delivery routes for tea, rice and the Shirin Asal range, alongside scheduled service to Calgary and Edmonton in Alberta.
