Questions about distributing in California

What is the minimum order?

We sell by full container load (FCL). A 40' high cube holds about 20 pallets, and a container can mix brands and SKUs that ship from the same plant. We do not sell by pallet or by case.

Who is the importer of record?

LatinXchange LLC. We hold the FDA registrations and the FSVP file, file the entry with CBP through a licensed customs broker in Miami and pay duties. The product reaches you cleared, with U.S. labeling, and your invoice is a domestic purchase.

Do I get exclusivity in my state?

Territories are assigned per brand and per state, subject to the volume we agree on. For Dos Pinos, 11 states and D.C. are outside our contractual territory and cannot be assigned; Emsula and Chile Lengua de Fuego are available nationwide.

How long does a container take?

Plan on about three weeks from confirmed order to departure at origin, plus ocean transit to Port Everglades and customs release. We confirm the date on each order.
