Authentic, hand-pleated soup dumplings travel well frozen and steam to order in minutes — a fit for restaurants, hotels, caterers, supermarkets and Asian-food e-commerce. Demand keeps growing across North America and Europe as diners look for genuine Asian flavors.

What to check before you buy (the specs that matter)

• Net weight & count per pack — confirm pieces per bag/case for accurate menu costing.
• Packaging — bulk catering bags vs. retail boxes, or your own private label.
• Shelf life & storage — keep frozen at -18°C; confirm months of shelf life.
• Certifications — HACCP and export documentation for your market (US/EU).
• MOQ & lead time — flexible, low minimums for trial orders; MOQ is quoted per product and confirmed with your quote.

OEM / Private label

If you're building your own brand, look for a supplier that customizes recipe, filling, packaging and labeling — so the product fits your market and your shelf, even from a small first run.

Cold-chain shipping basics

Frozen dumplings ship in temperature-controlled containers at -18°C. Align on Incoterms, port, and who handles freight, duties and VAT before you confirm an order. Small buyer? Ask about mixed-container consolidation so you don't need full-container volumes.
