Why SMJL

A Dates Supply You Can Rely On

For agents and wholesalers, a good supplier comes down to three things: stock that is always available, consistent quality, and clear legality. Those are the three things we keep building to this day.

01

Direct Imports from 8 Countries

Dates sourced directly from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Tunisia, Algeria, Palestine, and the United States. No middlemen, quality controlled from the source.

02

Large, Reliable Stock

Import planning follows the season, so partner supply stays secure all year, including the peak demand before Ramadan.

03

Two Strategic Warehouses

The Jakarta warehouse serves western Indonesia, the Surabaya warehouse serves the east. Faster delivery, more efficient freight.
