Why AAA Trade House

Our Heritage & Strength

Family experience in Pakistan's salt trade since 1994, operating as the export brand of AAA General Trading.

PMDC-Certified Edible Grade

Our edible grade carries PMDC certification. The certification is product-level, on the edible grade — not company-wide.

Direct from Source

Primarily direct from PMDC. Where we draw on other local suppliers, we test the material and keep you in the loop.

Tested, Report on Request

High-purity salt, PCSIR tested and halal certified. Independent laboratory report available on request, and required certifications provided for orders that need them.

Registered Entity

Contracts and invoices are issued by AAA General Trading, our registered company and a Chamber of Commerce member. AAA Trade House is the export brand.

Our Story

In salt since 1994.

Our family has worked in Pakistan's salt trade for over 30 years. In 2009 we formalised the business as AAA General Trading, our registered company. AAA Trade House is our dedicated Himalayan pink salt export brand, operating under it.

We source primarily direct from PMDC. Where we draw on other local suppliers, we test the material and keep you in the loop. We hold over 100 tonnes a month across coarse, fine, edible and chunk grades, with PMDC certification on the edible grade.

Our facility near Kot Abbas Shaheed, Khanewal is operational, handling crushing and grading in-house. We already supply the domestic market, shipping to Karachi and across Pakistan under our own registered salt brand.

Company & Legal Structure

AAA Trade House is the export brand of AAA General Trading, our registered company operating since 2009. Contracts, invoices and banking documents are issued in the name of AAA General Trading.

The export brand is younger than the company. Domestic supply across Pakistan is established, under our own registered salt brand, and the export side runs on the same plant, the same grades and the same registered entity.

Why We Do This

For over thirty years our family has worked with Himalayan salt, learned hands-on and passed down, not taught at a desk.

In 2009 we formalised the business as AAA General Trading. Today a new generation leads the export side: someone who grew up around this trade and set out early to take the family's salt to the world.

We run it on transparency and persistence. We tell you what we know and what we do not, and we do not give up when something gets difficult. You are a buyer we know by name, not a ticket number, and we put our own name on every shipment.

Buyer Questions

What importers ask first.

The answers below are the ones we give on every call. Anything not covered here, ask us directly.

Where does AAA Trade House source its Himalayan pink salt?

We are a bulk Himalayan pink salt supplier in Pakistan, sourcing primarily direct from PMDC-leased mines with no trading layer between the mine and your container. Where we draw on other local suppliers we test the material and keep you informed.

What is the monthly supply capacity?

Over 100 tonnes of Himalayan pink salt per month, across coarse, fine, edible and chunk grades.

How long does a Himalayan salt order take to deliver?

Lead time depends on grade, order volume, packaging and destination port. Tell us what you need and we confirm a date in writing before you commit.

Is the salt certified and laboratory tested?

The edible grade carries PMDC certification. That certification is product-level on the edible grade, not company-wide. Batches are PCSIR tested and an independent laboratory report is available on request.

What packaging sizes are available?

25 kg and 50 kg PP export bags, 500 g and 1 kg branded retail packs, or a custom size you specify. 50 kg is the largest bag we fill.

Do you offer private label Himalayan pink salt?

Yes. We supply wholesale pink salt for private label: your branding on bulk packaging and on 500 g / 1 kg retail packs under our registered brand. Local distribution is live and export is to follow.

Which Incoterms do you ship on?

FOB is our usual basis, loading at Karachi or Port Qasim depending on the booking. CIF is available on request, and we quote other terms to your requirement.

Is there a minimum order quantity?

There is no fixed minimum. Tell us the volume, grade and packaging you need and we quote to it.

Is the salt halal certified?

Yes. The salt is halal certified, and the edible grade also carries PMDC certification.

Does Himalayan pink salt expire?

No. Salt cannot support microbial growth, so kept sealed and dry it keeps indefinitely. Codex CXS 1-1985 4.7.1(vii) lists non-iodised food grade salt among the foods that need no date of minimum durability, and EU Regulation 1169/2011 Annex X names cooking salt in the same terms. Our retail packs carry a packing date and a lot number rather than a best-before date.

What HS code does Himalayan salt export under?

Salt, including table salt and pure sodium chloride, sits under HS heading 2501. The national subheading differs by destination, so your customs broker confirms the exact classification. We issue the commercial invoice and packing list against whatever your import agent specifies.

Is the salt iodised?

No, it is supplied non-iodised. Iodine carries through into curing, pickling and fermenting, so buyers in those categories generally specify non-iodised salt. If you need an iodised grade, tell us and we quote it separately.

What is the difference between Himalayan pink salt and ordinary table salt?

Himalayan pink salt is mined rock salt that is crushed and graded rather than refined. The colour comes from the rock it is mined from, not from an added colourant, and no anti-caking agent is added. Chemically it is still predominantly sodium chloride and is used in the same quantities as any other salt.

Do you supply the domestic Pakistani market as well as exporting?

Yes. We ship to Karachi and across Pakistan under our own registered salt brand, alongside export orders.

What grain sizes do you supply?

Coarse, fine, edible and chunk grades, crushed and graded in-house at our Khanewal plant. Tell us the granulation your line needs and we confirm against your written specification before you commit.
