Afghanistan’s food and beverage industry is developing rapidly, and reliable access to food raw materials is critical for growth. At Wakman Group, our Import Division ensures that Afghan manufacturers, bakeries, beverage companies, and wholesalers can access the same high-quality inputs that global brands use. By working with internationally recognized suppliers such as Aditya Birla, IFF, BASF, Dow, Louis Dreyfus Company, JBS, Tyson Foods, and other global leaders, we guarantee quality, safety, and compliance. Our role is not only to import products, but also to connect Afghan industries with world-class supply chains.
Starches are fundamental to modern food processing. They serve as binders, thickeners, stabilizers, and texture enhancers in hundreds of food products.
We import:
Potato starch – used in snacks, instant noodles, soups, and as a gluten-free alternative in bakery.
• Corn starch – a versatile starch for bakery, sauces, and dairy applications.
• Modified starches – resistant to heat and processing, ensuring stability in sauces, gravies, dressings, and canned foods.
• Maltodextrin – widely applied in confectionery, sports drinks, and instant powders.
✅ Why it matters: Without these starches, Afghan food producers cannot meet consumer demand for consistent, high-quality products.
Sweeteners are the backbone of the beverage, bakery, and confectionery industries.
We import:
– Glucose syrup – critical for candies, soft drinks, jams, and dairy desserts.
– Dextrose – used in bakery products, instant beverages, and nutritional supplements.
– High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) – key for soft drinks and sweetened beverages.
– Sugar substitutes – like sucralose, aspartame, and stevia for diet products.
Why it matters: Afghanistan’s growing beverage and sweets industry depends on uninterrupted sweetener supply, which Wakman Group ensures through trusted global networks.
Chocolate consumption in Afghanistan has grown significantly, and the bakery sector requires consistent cocoa inputs.
We import:
– Cocoa powder (natural & alkalized) – for cakes, biscuits, beverages, and confectionery.
– Cocoa mass – an essential base for chocolate making.
– Cocoa butter substitutes (CBS/CBR) – affordable alternatives for bakery and confectionery.
Why it matters: Cocoa products are often difficult to source consistently in Afghanistan. Our imports help local producers compete with international brands.
Dairy powders and proteins are essential in multiple Afghan food sectors, from bakery to nutrition.
We import:
Skimmed milk powder (SMP) – widely used in sweets, dairy drinks, and bakery.
Whole milk powder (WMP) – for chocolates, confectionery, and dairy-based products.
Whey protein concentrate (WPC) – a high-value ingredient for bakery, beverages, and sports nutrition.
Caseinates & dairy proteins – for processed foods and nutritional products.
Why it matters: Local dairy production cannot meet demand. Imports ensure Afghan industries have access to reliable, certified ingredients
Food safety and shelf life are critical for both domestic sales and exports. We supply:
Citric acid – used in beverages, sweets, jams, and sauces.
Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate (SAPP) – especially important in bakery and processed meats.
Phosphates – widely used in dairy and bakery.
Preservatives, stabilizers & gelling agents – to maintain shelf life, texture, and safety.
Why it matters: Afghan producers require internationally certified additives to comply with both local regulations and international export standards.
Beyond basic ingredients, food innovation depends on flavor and functionality.
We import:
Food flavorings & essences – for beverages, confectionery, and snacks.
Emulsifiers & thickeners – ensuring texture in sauces, dairy, and bakery.
Enzymes – increasing efficiency in bakery, brewing, and dairy.
Nutritional fortification ingredients – such as vitamins, minerals, and protein boosters.
Why it matters: Afghan companies must innovate to compete. These ingredients allow them to produce flavored drinks, fortified foods, and higher-quality bakery items.
Wakman Group’s import division is more than a supplier — it is a strategic partner for Afghanistan’s food industry. We combine global sourcing, compliance, and documentation with a deep understanding of local market needs.
Whether it’s starches for bakeries, sweeteners for beverages, cocoa for confectionery, or dairy powders for sweets, we deliver the raw materials that keep Afghanistan’s food industry running and growing.
