Bridging Asia's Best Oriental Foods to Global Markets

From authentic Japanese sauces to innovative Southeast Asian pastes – we connect established Asian brands with distributors worldwide, backed by complete halal certification.

How We Bridge East & West

LBX specializes in B2B distribution of premium oriental food products. We work with established Asian manufacturers who have proven track records, and connect them with distributors and importers in key global markets. Our role is to simplify international trade, ensure quality and compliance, and support long-term partnerships.

Curated Brand Portfolio and Sourcing

Access to Established Asian Brands

We partner with reputable food manufacturers across Asia – from century-old Japanese companies to innovative Malaysian producers. Every brand in our portfolio has:

  • Proven market success in their home country
  • Strong production capabilities and quality control
  • Complete halal certification (JAKIM, MUI, or equivalent)
  • Export readiness (packaging, documentation, compliance)

What We Provide:

  • Pre-qualified manufacturer relationships
  • Product samples and specifications
  • Factory visit coordination
  • Quality assurance oversight
  • Brand performance data


Best For:
Distributors seeking reliable Asian food suppliers, importers expanding product range

Export Documentation and Compliance

Seamless International Trade Management

International food trade involves complex documentation, certification requirements, and regulatory compliance. We handle all the administrative burden so you can focus on sales and distribution.

What We Handle:

  • Halal certification documentation (JAKIM-certified)
  • Export licenses and permits
  • Commercial invoices and packing lists
  • Certificate of origin
  • Customs clearance coordination
  • Phytosanitary certificates (where needed)
  • Import compliance verification


Best For:
Distributors new to importing from Asia, buyers in markets with strict halal requirements


Key Benefit:
Every shipment arrives audit-ready with complete documentation package

Logistics and Consolidation

Cost-Effective Shipping Solutions

Ordering from multiple Asian suppliers separately is expensive and complex. We consolidate products from different manufacturers into single shipments, dramatically reducing your logistics costs and administrative overhead.

What We Do:

  • Consolidate multiple brands/products
  • Negotiate competitive freight rates
  • Coordinate with trusted forwarders
  • Manage container loading and documentation
  • Track shipments in real-time
  • Handle claims and issues
  • Provide transparent cost breakdowns


Best For:
Distributors ordering multiple brands, buyers managing complex supply chains


Cost Savings:
Average 35-40% reduction in shipping costs through consolidation

Product Localization Support

Adapt Products for Your Market

Not every product works everywhere. We work with manufacturers to adapt products for specific markets – whether that’s adjusting spice levels for the Middle East, changing pack sizes for European retail, or adding Arabic labeling.

What We Facilitate:

  • Market feedback to manufacturers
  • Packaging modifications
  • Labeling in local languages
  • Product formulation adjustments
  • Format changes (bulk vs retail)
  • Shelf-life optimization


Best For:
Distributors seeking exclusive adaptations, buyers in markets with specific requirements


Important Note:
We facilitate these discussions and coordinate between you and the manufacturer – the manufacturer makes the final decisions on product changes based on feasibility and MOQs.

Market Intelligence and Support

Data-Driven Market Insights

We track oriental food trends across our target markets and share insights with our partners. While we don’t provide direct retail activation services, we can advise on which products are trending and connect you with service providers for marketing support if needed.

What We Provide:

  • Category trend reports
  • Competitive landscape analysis
  • Pricing benchmarks
  • Consumer preference insights (where available)
  • Success stories from other markets
  • Introductions to marketing agencies (upon request)


Best For:
Distributors planning market entry, buyers expanding into new categories
