FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions we hear most from wholesalers and international distribution partners. Something not covered? Get in touch and we will help.

Ordering & pricing

What is the minimum order?

The minimum order is one full load. Each pallet contains one product, but different product and brand pallets may be combined within that load, and there is no cap on how many: a load can carry as many different products as it has pallets.

How do I place an order or request a price list?

Use the contact form or email info@northlights.be with the brands, formats and quantities you need. We usually reply within one business day with availability and a tailored quote.

What are your payment terms?

We work exclusively with full prepayment. After approval, you receive a pro forma invoice; once payment is received, we schedule load assembly and transport.

Can products and transport go on one invoice?

Yes. We can arrange transport through our trusted logistics partner and include it with the products in one clear quote and invoice.

Products & brands

Which brands do you supply?

We supply beverage brands such as Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Red Bull, Fanta, Spa, Bullit Energy, Golden Power, Kızılay and Uludağ. We also supply food and dairy brands such as Nutella, Campina, Chocomel and Fristi. Availability is confirmed with the quote.

Can you source a specific brand, format or variant on request?

Yes. As an independent distributor we are not tied to a fixed catalogue. Tell us the brand, format and volume you need and we will check it against our stock and supply network.

Do you supply other FMCG products alongside beverages?

Yes. Alongside soft drinks, energy drinks, water and dairy beverages, we supply or source complementary FMCG and food products, depending on brand, volume and availability.

Which pack sizes are available?

Every format the producer packs. That includes 250ml and 330ml cans, 500ml on the energy lines, PET in 330ml, 500ml, 1L and 1.5L and larger, glass on the lines bottled in it, and cartons, pouches and multipack trays across dairy and juice. A pallet carries a single product in a single format, so a mixed load can combine formats as readily as brands.

Do you offer private label?

Yes, across several categories. We can arrange production under your own label rather than a producer's. What is possible depends on the product and the volume committed, so send the category and the quantity you have in mind and we will confirm what can be done.

Delivery & export

Which regions do you deliver to?

We deliver exclusively within Europe and are active in 10+ countries. Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and France are our core markets; we also work in Denmark, Poland and Czechia, among others.

How fast is delivery?

Delivery in our core markets typically takes 3–5 working days after confirmation of prepayment and order planning. The exact lead time is confirmed with the quote.

Can I collect my order myself?

Yes. A carrier you nominate can collect the load from our warehouse in Essen, and it still leaves as one full load. If you would rather not arrange transport yourself, we organise it through our trusted logistics partner and put it on the same quote and invoice as the goods.

Do you handle import and export?

Yes. We build on more than 17 years of international trading experience and are active in 10+ European countries. North Lights delivers exclusively within Europe.

Business supply

What types of businesses does North Lights supply?

We supply professional buyers that purchase by full load. Our customers are mainly other wholesalers and distributors, in Belgium and across the rest of Europe.

What information do you need for a quote?

Include the products and formats, preferred load composition, delivery address or destination country, and preferred delivery period. This lets us confirm stock, pricing, transport and planning.
