PORT SAID Herbs & Spices
A Dutch trading company specialised in producing, importing and exporting top-quality herbs, spices and dried vegetables — sourced from around the world, and above all from Egypt.
Named after the famous Egyptian harbour city of Port Said — a historic crossroads of Mediterranean and Suez-canal trade — we keep our sourcing roots in Egypt while serving clients across Europe from the Netherlands.
Egyptian sourcing roots
Dried onion products, parsley, dill, basil, cumin, fennel and many more — sourced primarily from Egypt.
Own drying facility in Egypt
Backed by two generations of experience in dehydrating agricultural products.
Delivered across Europe
High-quality products at competitive prices, supplied from stock in the Netherlands.
Who we are
Quality is the guiding principle behind everything we trade. Pairing a sharp eye for product quality with competitive pricing, we have built a strong reputation and lasting relationships across the food industry.
Quality-led purchasing
We are highly selective when we compare suppliers. Our broad experience and strong business relationships in Egypt and other countries let us buy high-quality products at very competitive prices.
Who we supply
Most of our customers work in the meat and snack industry, and we also supply the well-known herb and spice traders in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Reliable delivery from stock
By consistently delivering high quality and dealing honestly, we build long-term relationships. Products are supplied from our own stock, held at our storage in Liessel, the Netherlands.
What we supply
Dried onion is our specialty — dehydrated at our own facility in Egypt and delivered in every form the food industry needs. Around it we carry a full range of dried vegetables, herbs and spices.
Dried onion, in every form
Dried onion is the product we are known for — kibbled, minced, powdered, granulated, chopped, sliced and toasted, in both standard and commercial grades.
Alongside onion we also dry garlic, leek and bell paprika, giving snack and meat producers a complete dried-vegetable range from a single source.
Herbs & spices
A broad selection sourced from Egypt and around the world.
Seeds & warming spices
Peppers & chilies
