The Journey of Efraz Trading

Founded on the values of absolute freshness, honesty, and seamless logistics, Efraz Trading is built upon 25 years of industry-leading import-export expertise under the supervision of Mr. Arafat Rahman.

Over the past 25 years, our owner Mr. Arafat Rahman has established deep relationships with growers, customs clearing departments, and retail distribution systems. This experience allows Efraz Trading to coordinate bulk container shipments under precise logistics criteria, bypassing traditional brokers and offering premium fruits and vegetables at highly competitive prices.

What started as a specialized import channel to Bangladesh has expanded into a corporate-scale sourcing and wholesale distribution network headquartered in Deira, Dubai, UAE. We import fruits from South Africa, Egypt, Chile, and Australia, and export agricultural commodities across the GCC.

Our Direct Sourcing Promise

We work as **direct importers**. This means our representatives negotiate directly with farmers in citrus groves, apple orchards, and potato fields. We manage the logistics, the cooling telemetry, and custom clearances, delivering fresh crops directly to wholesale networks and supermarket shelves.

Message from our Founder, Mr. Arafat Rahman

"In agricultural trading, seconds matter. Maintaining freshness over thousands of nautical miles is an art form. Over the past 25 years, I have seen the trading industry transform, but one thing remains constant: trust. At Efraz Trading, we build long-term relationships with growers and buyers, and we take full responsibility for quality at every port. Direct Sourcing is not just a commercial model; it's our guarantee of quality."
