Kitchen trial
The chef evaluates species, portions and preparation performance separately from the tea, spice or pastry shortlist.
Green Nordic AB · Hong Kong buyer brief
Nordic Seafood & Food Sourcing for Hong Kong
For a Hong Kong restaurant group or food distributor, start with the receiving account and the space available for each delivery. A seafood offer needs a species, cut and temperature specification; a pastry or ingredient trial needs a preparation method and a pack that fits the intended kitchen. Compare tea service, spices, cocoa and frozen dough as distinct buying decisions. Tell Green Nordic which products are for Hong Kong sales and which, if any, are intended for a separate onward market.

A product-led purchasing brief
Choose the right programme for Hong Kong
Use this selector to request comparable specifications. These are enquiry routes; listing a product does not confirm stock, a local distributor or a destination-market approval.
| Product programme | Define in your RFQ | Request before purchase |
|---|---|---|
| Nordic salmon Whole fish or fillets; fresh or frozen as specified by the buyer. |
Species, declared origin, cut, size grading, skin/bone requirements and pack weight. | Fish specification; batch traceability; shelf life and handling conditions. |
| Nordic cod & whitefish A separate whitefish enquiry for kitchens, distributors or retail packs. |
Exact species, portions or fillets, glazing where applicable, frozen/fresh route and yield expectations. | Species and origin confirmation; processing specification; cold-chain and destination documents. |
| Nordic shellfish Specification-led enquiries for shrimp, crab or mussels; each species quoted separately. |

Your Hong Kong account plan
Create a receiving plan for one Hong Kong account: case dimensions, storage allocation, delivery frequency and trial approval owner. Keep any onward-market programme on its own specification and quotation.
Complete the local brief: name the first buyer or venue in Hong Kong, the product it will evaluate, the person approving the sample, the delivery/receiving point and its reorder trigger. This turns a city enquiry into an actionable account proposal.
Local purchasing focus
Hong Kong receiving and importer planning
Build the offer around the Hong Kong importer and the actual receiving premises. Ask the buyer to review the Centre for Food Safety’s importer/distributor registration and imported-food guidance for the selected category. Record the receiving time window, handling equipment, freezer or dry-store capacity and case dimensions. These buyer-defined constraints help choose a workable pack and delivery plan before discussing a wider distribution territory.
Fit the case to the receiving account
Request external case dimensions, units per case, usable product weight and storage conditions. Share the buyer’s preferred delivery frequency and the available receiving space. A pack suited to a distributor’s storage operation may need a different case split from a restaurant kitchen; qualify both accounts before requesting one common quotation.
Seafood portions and kitchen yield
For salmon, cod and shellfish, specify the exact species and product form. The kitchen should compare portion yield, preparation method and wastage using the agreed trial specification. List the receiving checks and batch information required by the importer. Confirm fresh or frozen logistics separately rather than combining unlike offers.
Tea, spices and pastry by sales channel
A tea-service programme needs brewing and portion criteria; a retail line needs a defined consumer pack. Spices should be tested in the intended recipe, while pastry trials should record handling, cooking performance and portions per case. Identify who approves each trial and the account’s realistic reorder volume.

Buyer questions
Can this proposal focus on one Hong Kong outlet?
Yes. Name the trial outlet or account, its product need and expected quantity. Small trials remain subject to supplier MOQ and a workable freight basis.
What should a Hong Kong buyer confirm before a trial?
Confirm the importer, product category and final destination, then agree pack dimensions, storage conditions and who will approve the sample. The importer should review the applicable CFS guidance before dispatch.
Does Green Nordic hold stock in Hong Kong?
This page does not promise local stock or an office. Supply location, delivery responsibilities and availability are confirmed in the quotation.
Can I request private label or a distributor programme?
Yes, as a separately qualified project. Define the brand, product specification, territory, initial order and forecast. Producer capability, terms and any local requirements must be confirmed.
