Commencement of Coffee Imports from Latin America for a Company in the Food Sector

Challenge

An entrepreneur of Latin American origin approached us with the intention of importing coffee from Colombia, leveraging his established contacts with several plantations in the country. From the outset, he contacted us to understand all the procedures involved—from setting up the company to registering with the General Food Sanitary Registry (RGSA).

Omnia’s Solution

At Omnia Aduanas, we supported the client throughout the entire business launch process:

Coordination of transport and the first import customs clearances.

• Company formation.
• EORI registration application.
• Guidance on RGSA requirements for operating as a food business.
• Review and validation of origin documentation required by customs and sanitary authorities.
• Coordination of transport and initial import procedures.

Result

The client is already offering Colombian coffee at his premises in Barcelona and is planning to open new locations.
