Specification mapping
We translate your requirements into a stable product definition: form, caliber/cut, roast/color, moisture limits, packaging barrier, labeling, and inspection points.
Company • Ankara, Türkiye • Export coordination
Atlas Global Trading Inc.
We coordinate Türkiye-origin hazelnut supply programs for industrial and retail customers — connecting clear, testable specifications to reliable processing capacity and export-ready logistics.
How we operate
Our focus is operational discipline: stable specifications, predictable lead times, and documentation that procurement and QA teams can use without friction. We do this by coordinating with Türkiye-based processors and export logistics partners, then managing the “edges” that create problems in real production: moisture drift, roast variability, particle/dust control, packaging integrity, and lot traceability.
Procurement-first approach
Specification discipline
Export coordination
Repeat shipments
If you already have a spec sheet, share it. If you don’t, share the end-use and your process constraints — we’ll propose a spec framework that is testable and repeatable.
Documented lots
Each shipment is structured around identifiable lots and documented so your internal traceability, QC release, and audit workflows remain clean.
Program continuity
The goal is not a one-off purchase. We design for repeat ordering: stable specs, consistent pack formats, predictable production windows, and clear change control.
What we supply
We support the most common hazelnut formats used across confectionery, bakery, ice cream, spreads, and ingredient manufacturing. Programs can be built for bulk industrial use, or as retail/private label with shelf-ready packaging.
- Kernels: natural, roasted, blanched
- Cuts: chopped/diced, sliced, granulated (controlled dust where required)
- Milled: meal / flour (particle-controlled formats for bakery, macarons, mixes)
- Paste / puree: roast-color aligned for creams, wafers, fillings and variegates
- Oil: refined or cold-pressed programs for culinary and manufacturing blends
Looking for a specific retail format (zip pouch, stand-up pouch, jar, bottle, case count)? Tell us the target shelf and market rules and we’ll propose a pack plan.
Specification framework (what procurement teams actually control)
Hazelnut “quality” becomes measurable when the critical variables are written down, tested, and protected by packaging and handling. Below is a practical framework you can use when drafting or reviewing specifications.
| Format | Key variables | Typical controls & options |
|---|---|---|
| Natural kernels | Caliber, defect/foreign matter limits, moisture, sorting level | Multiple calibers; clean appearance targets; moisture limits aligned to shelf-life and destination climate; packaging with liners and pallet labeling. |
| Roasted kernels | Roast degree/color, aroma profile, residual skin %, moisture | Roast profile aligned to application (snack vs. chocolate vs. bakery); moisture and oxidation protection; oxygen barrier packaging where required. |
| Blanched kernels | Skin removal, color band, breakage %, moisture | Light color targets for premium appearance; smooth texture for creams and inclusions; optional roasting after blanching. |
| Chopped / diced | Cut size distribution, dust/fines %, roast/blanch option | Multiple size ranges; controlled fines for topping lines; dust control for depositor and enrober stability; packaging to protect shape during transit. |
| Sliced | Slice thickness, breakage, moisture | Thickness aligned to bakery inclusions; breakage limits; cartons/bags designed to prevent crushing. |
| Meal / flour | Particle distribution, fat content consistency, moisture | Particle control for macarons and mixes; moisture stability; reduced clumping; optional roast profiles for flavor. |
| Paste / puree | Fineness, viscosity/flow, roast color (light/medium/dark), oil separation | Fineness aligned to high-shear lines; viscosity targets for pumping and dosing; roast parameters aligned to flavor carry; pails/drums/IBC options. |
| Hazelnut oil | Refined vs. cold-pressed, sensory neutrality vs. aroma, oxidation protection | Packaging aligned to shelf-life; drums/IBC/bottles; handling guidance for light/heat exposure and storage. |
Change control (often overlooked)
If a spec change is needed (new crop, new packaging, revised roast), lock it with a pilot shipment first. Confirm sensory + process performance, then scale under the same written definition.
Quality, compliance, and documentation
We support customers who require structured QA workflows. Programs can be aligned to destination requirements and your internal procurement rules. Depending on product format and processing partner, certification scope may include food safety standards and religious/market access documentation.
- COA discipline: agreed parameters, test methods, and tolerance bands per product form
- Lot identification: shipment organized around identifiable lots for traceability
- Packaging controls: liners, oxygen barrier options where relevant, pallet labeling and handling guidance
- Export paperwork: aligned documents for customs clearance and customer receiving
- Sampling: pilot samples and pre-shipment samples to reduce surprises at receiving
Ask for the exact documentation set you need (and any customer templates). We’ll align the workflow before production begins.
How a supply program starts
1) Define the target
You share a spec sheet or end-use details: application, line type, desired roast/color, target cut/particle, destination, and required documents.
2) Pilot & confirm
Samples confirm taste and process performance. For paste/puree, we align fineness and viscosity for your mixing and dosing equipment.
3) Scale repeatably
Once locked, we run repeat shipments under the same definition with lot documentation, consistent packaging, and predictable scheduling.
Responsible sourcing, practically applied
“Responsible” becomes meaningful when it is operational: traceable lots, documented supply, and a stable partner network that supports long-term planning. We prioritize transparency that helps customers meet internal procurement governance without adding noise or vague claims.
Traceability-ready lots
Documentation discipline
Long-term planning
If you have a supplier code, responsible sourcing questionnaire, or audit checklist, send it — we’ll align the program requirements early.
FAQ
Where are you located?
We are based in Ankara, Türkiye and coordinate export supply programs and documentation from here.
What is your typical customer profile?
Procurement, R&D and QA teams in manufacturing, ingredient and retail companies that require stable specifications, documentation and repeatable shipments.
Can you work with our specification sheet?
Yes. Share your spec sheet (or your end-use and line constraints). We will map it to a stable product definition and propose sampling + packaging controls.
Do you support private label packaging?
Yes. We can support shelf-ready programs: pack format, case counts, palletization, and label workflow inputs aligned to your destination market requirements.
How do you manage variability across shipments?
We focus on the variables that move finished-product outcomes: caliber/cut distribution, roast profile/color, moisture stability, particle/fines control, and packaging integrity — then keep the program locked with change control and lot documentation.
