About KWB WITTEENBURG B.V.
We're a trading company on Wittenburg in Amsterdam. We import, export and distribute groceries, food commodities, animal feed and industrial raw materials, from a few cartons up to full container loads.
Who we are
One supplier for food, feed and raw materials
KWB WITTEENBURG B.V. buys and sells goods that businesses need in volume. Some of our customers run shops and supermarkets and need branded groceries by the carton or pallet. Others are wholesalers, importers, farms, feed mills and manufacturers who buy rice, sugar, edible oil, feed ingredients or raw materials by the tonne or by the container.
Because we handle all of this under one roof, you can deal with one contact for very different products. A shop owner can add a pallet of rice to a grocery order. A trader can combine several commodities in one shipment. Whatever you buy, the process is the same: you send a request, we check price and availability, and you get a quote in writing before anything is agreed.
We sell within the Netherlands, across the EU and worldwide, from a few cartons for a local shop to container loads for buyers overseas.

What we supply
Four departments, each built around how its goods are bought
The shop is split into four colour-coded departments. Some products sell by the carton, others by the tonne or the container, so each department is organised around the way its goods are ordered and shipped.
Groceries
Well-known brands for retail shelves: coffee and tea, soft drinks, energy drinks and beer, sweets and chocolate, pasta and snacks, cooking oil, dairy and eggs, baby care, pet food and sports nutrition, plus fresh and frozen fruit, vegetables, meat and fish. Most of it is ordered by the carton or the pallet.
Bulk food
Food commodities for wholesalers, importers and food manufacturers: rice, sugar, flour and starch, beans, lentils and other pulses, grains, oats, nuts, peanuts, oil seeds, dried fruit, spices, tomato paste, cocoa and coffee beans, and edible oils in bulk. These are usually bought by the tonne, in bags or by the container.
Feed and livestock
Feed ingredients such as fish meal, blood meal, corn gluten meal, soybeans and alfalfa hay for feed mills and farms; bird seed for packers and pet shops; and livestock, including cattle and hatching eggs, for farms and breeders.
Industrial
Raw materials and recyclables for manufacturing and trade: scrap metal and plastics, industrial chemicals and fertilisers, charcoal and firewood, natural fibres, copy paper, and equipment such as used shipping containers.
How we work
From your request to your delivery
Prices for many of our products move with the market and depend on quantity, packing and destination. That's why every order starts with a request and a written quote rather than a checkout.
- You press Order now on a product, or open the quote form, and tell us the quantity, the unit (tonnes, cartons, containers and so on) and the delivery country. Add anything else that matters, such as packing, labelling or a target delivery date.
- We check availability, the right packing for your quantity and the best way to get the goods to you.
- You receive a quote by email. It covers the product and specification, price, quantity, packing, delivery terms, expected delivery time, payment terms and how long the quote is valid.
- You accept the quote in writing and we confirm the order by email. Nothing is agreed and nothing is charged before that point.
- If transport is part of the quote, we help arrange forwarding and delivery, whether that's a pallet by road or a full container by sea.
- You check the goods when they arrive. If anything is damaged or missing, tell us straight away and we'll work it out with you. The details are on our Delivery and returns page.

Our base
Trading from Amsterdam's old harbour
Our office is on Wittenburg, one of the islands in Amsterdam's eastern harbour that were built in the 17th century for shipping and trade. Today the area is a mix of homes and businesses, a short distance from the city centre.
The Netherlands is one of Europe's main gateways for food and commodities, with large seaports and road links into Belgium, Germany and beyond. That makes it a practical base for selling within the Netherlands, across the EU and worldwide.
