Shiv ImpEx

Shiiv Imports is an Australian grocery importer and private label partner serving supermarket category managers and own-brand teams across Australia and New Zealand. Operating under the trading name Shiiv Imports (formerly associated with the Shiv ImpEx domain), the company specializes in global product sourcing, private label development, and controlled brand management with distributor exclusivity for retail grocery channels. The business supplies more than 10,000 stores Australia-wide through national grocery wholesale channels and maintains operational teams in Sydney, Auckland, Singapore, Ahmedabad (India), and Texas (USA).

The company's core service model is structured around three pillars: global sourcing, private label and brand creation, and national distribution at scale. For global sourcing, it draws on established supplier partnerships across Thailand, Vietnam, Poland, Dubai, the United States, India, China, and Japan, with the ability to open new sourcing markets on demand. All imported goods are delivered with correct labeling and border clearances compliant with DAFF import biosecurity requirements and the Australian Food Standards Code.

For private label engagements, Shiiv Imports manages the full development process — from factory and recipe selection through to artwork, labeling, and warehouse delivery — typically completing brief-to-shelf cycles in approximately 90 days. It caters to value, mid-tier, and premium own-brand tiers, making it suitable for a broad range of retail positioning strategies.

The product catalogue spans ten food and non-food categories relevant to supermarket and foodservice buyers: drinks and beverages (soft drinks, juices, waters, energy drinks, RTD lines); snacks and confectionery (chips, confectionery, frozen potato and vegetable snack lines); bakery, biscuits, and wafers; pasta, sauces, and cooking bases; rice, grains, pulses, and pantry staples; oils, condiments, dressings, and pickles; spices and seasonings; ready meals and meal kits; tea, coffee, and hot beverages; and breakfast cereals and staples. Non-food lines include napkins, paper towels, toilet tissue, facial tissue, molded fiber, and MG paper. Coconut products — including coconut milk, cream, oil, and water — and authentic Indian food brands represent specialist sourcing competencies.

Organic sourcing is a dedicated capability, with the company positioned as an organic food importer in Sydney offering oats, rice, pulses, spices, coconut products, and snacks for retail shelf or private label programs across Australia and New Zealand.

Quality and compliance are central to its value proposition. The business operates under an ISO 9001-certified quality management system within its certified scope, maintains full batch tracking on all orders, and has a documented 24-hour recall plan in place prior to any first order. Stock is warehoused domestically in Australia, with 15-day payment terms and no large container minimum order requirements, enabling scalability from independent grocery groups to major chains and foodservice operators.
