Every seasoning recipe runs on the same noodle block and the same specification, so one technical sheet covers the range. Seasoning, pack weight, case configuration and artwork are configured for the buyer program; manufacturing is performed through selected production partners, and ALPHATRADE remains the commercial counterpart from quotation to delivery.

Buyer FAQ
Common questions on instant noodle programs
Can ALPHATRADE supply instant noodles under our brand?
ALPHATRADE supplies instant noodles from Egypt as a private-label program and contracts with you as seller. Your brand and pack artwork, the seasoning and format selected from the range on this page, with specification, artwork coordination, production, documentation and delivery managed as one program.
What pack formats are available for instant noodles?
The documented formats are the flexible single pack, the bundle of five packs, and the export carton at 40 units per case. Case and pallet configuration and container loading are set out above. Bundle presentation and case count are fixed on the program specification before the first order.
How is the seasoning specified?
The seasoning recipe and the sachet weight are written into the program specification for the selected variant, and the analytical parameters for the finished noodle block are set out in the specification section above. Each lot is analyzed against that specification.
What has to be settled before custom noodle pack artwork goes to print?
Four things, in this order: the product and the pack format; print-ready artwork, or a brief if design support is needed; written confirmation of rights to any licensed name, logo or mark that appears on the pack; and the destination labeling review, where the ingredient and allergen declarations are checked against the requirements of the market the goods enter.
Who is responsible for FDA requirements when importing instant noodles into the United States?
FSVP obligations sit with the designated FSVP importer, where applicable, and producing facilities keep their own applicable FDA obligations. The Foreign Supplier Verification Program is the importer's duty under FSMA, not the supplier's, and the FSVP importer is generally the US owner or consignee at entry, which may be a different company from the customs importer of record. Prior Notice must reach the FDA before arrival, filed by the designated filer. ALPHATRADE supplies the supplier-side evidence the importer's file requires and provides the product, producing-site and shipment data the filer needs.
Questions that apply to every program, on certification, the documents that travel with each lot and United States entry, are answered on Compliance & Quality and US food import compliance.
