Connecting American Producers to Global Grocery Shelves

American Grocery Exports gives quality U.S. food producers a direct path into international grocery and foodservice markets, starting with Türkiye.

Our Story

American Grocery Exports (AGE) started with a simple goal: take a genuinely well-chosen mix of American grocery products — from premium beef to gluten-free staples to distinctive flavored coffees — and put them in front of the buyers, distributors, and retailers who are looking for exactly that.

Our first step into international markets is a booth at WorldFood Istanbul 2026, where we're building relationships with Turkish importers and distributors and working with USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service in Istanbul to guide our product mix and market entry.

We're a small, hands-on team — which means every partner we work with gets direct access to the people actually running the business, not a call center.

  • Quality First We select products on merit, not just margin — every item in our lineup has to hold up to international buyers' standards.
  • Authenticity Genuine American products with a clear, honest story — no gimmicks, no shortcuts.
  • Reliability Consistent supply and communication, so our partners can plan with confidence.
  • Partnership We see distributors and retailers as long-term partners, not one-time transactions.
