  • OUR COMPANY

    First and foremost, we are here to serve you. As global trading specialists in Asia and the Pacific Rim, North and South America, and Europe, we offer expertise and experience in trading frozen, canned, freeze-dried and shelf-stable fruits and vegetables. Our goal is simple: bring buyer and seller together and provide extraordinary service and competitive pricing so that each transaction is worry-free and profitable for both parties. One-sided profits do not make good business and we are looking for long and lasting relationships with our customers and suppliers.

     

    For over forty years, Noon International has actively traded in food and food-related products worldwide. Anyone wanting to establish long-term and profitable trade with China for example, must spend an inordinate amount of time building such trusted relationships known as “guanxi.” Our relationships provide a network of suppliers and customers for safe, healthy food products in bulk, retail and food service applications that will meet FSMA requirements. We consider the value of this “priceless” and invite you to join us now and become part of this valuable safe food network serving buyers and sellers alike in the food industry.

     

    Over the years, the food industry has matured and buyers and sellers alike now have easy access to world markets. The power of technology and the Internet has made the world a much smaller place and general manufacturing processes and company infrastructures are visible to all. In this “transparent” environment, success belongs to the industry leaders (both large and small) throughout the world whose company philosophies support their core business.

     

    Our Business Strategy Is Your Competitive Edge

    Trading in the healthy, safe food business is a two-way process that requires us to act as both buyer and seller depending on the particular transaction. For example, if you want to export your products to the U.S. market and have no contacts or experience here, our team of import experts will provide extensive marketing, sales, support and service minimizing the cost and time spent by your company. This is a critical component when it comes to meeting the new requirements of the FSVP (Foreign Supplier Verification Program). In order to meet the new FSMA guidelines, whoever you sell to in the USA is responsible for your verification as a foreign supplier. We will take care of your verification.

     

    On the other side, if you’re a North American producer and want to export your food products to South and Central America, Asia and South East Asia, Australia, Europe or New Zealand, our export division is your main contact. Utilizing the experience of experts saves your company time and money and allows access to our worldwide database of approved food buyers and sellers. Understanding your business and marketing needs is essential – including logistics and shipping, product procurement, documentation, regulatory and label requirements, packaging design, consulting services, knowledge in all areas of food safety with particular emphasis on the new FSMA guidelines.

     

    This is a time of social responsibility, when all parties involved in the food chain must be accountable for their actions and products. FSMA has and will continue to rapidly change our industry and those who are not compliant will fail. At Noon International, we are dedicated to assisting our global suppliers, importers and exporters to meet the latest FSMA requirements for seamless international transactions. Customers today expect safe and healthy food and Noon International delivers this promise through our worldwide network of trustworthy and quality partners.

     

    As one of America’s oldest food importers and exporters serving buyers and sellers of the food industry worldwide since 1976, we are dedicated to improving and extending the lives of people throughout the world by providing safe and healthy food – a vision that is shared by Noon’s owners, shareholders, all employees and our local and global business partners. Please partner with us today!

Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the Internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the Internet’s vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete confidence.

We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how our company collects information from all end users of our Internet services (the “Services”)-those who access some of our Services but do not have accounts (“Visitors”) as well as those who may purchase Products and/or pay a monthly service fee to subscribe to the Service (“Members”)-what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the collection and use of such information. We request that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.

Personal Information Our Company Collects and How It Is Used

Introduction. Our company collects information in different ways from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services and the network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Products and Services, and generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.

Registration: Members may be asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up for our Products or Services including name, address, telephone number, billing information (such as a credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to access the Services. The personal information collected from Members during the registration process is used to manage each Member’s account (such as for billing purposes). This information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances.

However, in instances where our company and a partner jointly promote our Services, we may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the promotion.

In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any other purpose. We may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from personal information Members provide during registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of Members). As explained in more detail below, we may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell advertisements that appear on the Services.

Our Company Partners and Sponsors: Some products and services may be offered to Visitors and Members in conjunction with an affiliate, independent contractor seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors and Members some of these products and services, the partner may need to collect and maintain personal information. In these instances, you will be notified before any such data is collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular service or feature.

Additionally, our partners may have advertisements or co-branded Web Pages that are cosponsored by an affiliate, independent contractor seller, or non-affiliated partner. Our company may share non-identifying and aggregate information (except as described above), but not personal information, with such partners in order to administer the co-branded products or services offered.

Online Shopping: At some Web sites, you can purchase products and services or register to receive materials, such as a newsletter, catalog or new product and service updates. In many cases, you may be asked to provide contact information, such as your name, address, email address, phone number, and credit/debit card information.

If you complete an order for someone else, such as an online gift order sent directly to a recipient, you may be asked to provide information about the recipient, such as the recipient’s name, address, and phone number. Our company has no control over the third parties’ use of any personal information you provide when placing such an order. Please exercise care when doing so.

If you order services or products directly from our company we will use the personal information you provide only to process that order. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order.

Online Advertisements: Our company may display our online advertisements. In those cases we share aggregated and non-identifying information about our Visitors and Members collected through the registration process as well as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers.

Additionally, in some instances, we use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements or joint ventures. For instance, an advertiser or joint venture company tells us the audience they want to reach and provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may then display or send the advertisement to the intended audience. Our company does not share personal information about its Visitors or Members with these advertisers or joint venture companies.

Responses to Email Inquiries: When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to our company, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. Our company does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with any third party.

Voluntary Customer Surveys: We may periodically conduct both business and individual customer surveys. We encourage our customers to participate in these surveys because they provide us with important information that helps us to improve the types of products and services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third party. Participation in our customer surveys is voluntary.

We may take the information we receive from individuals responding to our Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other customers we may have, to create broader, generic responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third parties.

Special Cases: It is our company’s policy not to use or share the personal information about Visitors of Members in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

However, we may disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: credit agencies, collection agencies, merchant database agencies, law enforcement, or to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the Child Online Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Acceptable Use Policy or Terms Of Service, or other user policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect our company and our Members.

“Cookies” and How Our Company Uses Them. A “cookie” is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. Our company may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the products and services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks.

If you are a Visitor or Member we may use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your customer information. Additionally, be aware that if you visit other Web sites where you are prompted to log in or that are customizable, you may be required to accept cookies.

Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.

Our Company Commitment to Children’s Privacy. Protecting children’s privacy is especially important to us. It is our policy to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and all other applicable laws. Therefore we restrict our Web site to persons eighteen years or older.

YOU MUST BE EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OR OLDER TO ACCESS THIS WEB SITE. IF YOU ARE UNDER EIGHTEEN YEARS OF AGE, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ACCESS THIS WEB SITE FOR ANY REASON. DUE TO THE AGE RESTRICTIONS FOR USE OF THIS WEB SITE, NO INFORMATION OBTAINED BY THIS WEB SITE, FALLS WITHIN THE CHILD ONLINE PRIVACY ACT (COPA) AND IS NOT MONITORED AS DOING SO.

Public Forums: Please remember that any information you may disclose in any Member Directory, or other public areas of our Web sites or the Internet, becomes public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these public areas.
