Singapore imports almost all of its food, and it buys with the precision of a market that has no domestic harvest to fall back on. Beverage bottlers, dairy and dessert manufacturers, hotel and airline catering groups, and regional trading houses all source here — and a large share of what lands is re-exported across Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand and the Philippines. Scala Nuova ships Fruit Shells into Singapore in container programs, sourced at origin in Türkiye and documented for both local consumption and onward regional distribution.
Regulatory expectations are exacting but predictable. Imports are handled under the Singapore Food Agency framework, with importer licensing, permit declaration and product-specific requirements; we prepare the specification, Certificate of Analysis, ingredient and allergen declarations and health documentation your permit application needs. Halal certification is available across our range, which matters both for the domestic market and for onward supply into Malaysia and Indonesia. Chain certification covers FSSC 22000, BRC, IFS and ISO 22000.
Transit from Türkiye to the Port of Singapore runs roughly eighteen to twenty-five days depending on service and transhipment, with Mersin and Istanbul both serving Asia routings. Aseptic drums and bag-in-box travel ambient, which suits the long leg well; IQF fruit moves in reefer at −18 °C. If you are consolidating for regional redistribution we can split documentation by destination so each onward market receives a compliant document set.
Scala Nuova supplies frozen natural fruit shells as ready-to-fill serving vessels for foodservice, patisserie and ice-cream makers: hollowed pineapple, coconut, orange and melon shells. Cleaned and frozen ready to fill with ice cream, sorbet, mousse and plated desserts, they give gelaterias, restaurants, HORECA and dessert manufacturers a striking, sustainable, biodegradable natural presentation. Supplied frozen in whole and half formats to specification, each lot with COA and full specification.
Fruit Shells moves to Singapore under an unbroken cold chain: the product travels in reefer containers from our facility to your cold store, never leaving its temperature band. On this lane that makes reefer capacity and plug-in time at the port — not sailing frequency — the things to plan a programme around.

Halal certification is available across our range and is one of the most requested options for this market, both for domestic Singapore demand and for onward supply into Malaysia and Indonesia. Certificates are issued per lot and travel with the shipment alongside the COA and specification.
Your import permit declaration is supported by the product specification, Certificate of Analysis, ingredient and allergen declarations, and health or export certificates where the commodity requires them. We prepare these in the format your licensed importer needs; requirements vary by product category, so we confirm the set before the first shipment.

Yes, and many of our buyers do exactly that. We can consolidate volume into Singapore and prepare separate document sets per onward destination — Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines — so each market clears against compliant paperwork rather than a single generic set.
