We strive to be the industry’s trail blazer in commodity management through direct oversight of inventory and strong relationships with trade partners.

Why Spiceworks

Quality
At Spiceworks, we put food safety first. We go directly to our network of carefully-chosen audited partners from around the world, allowing us to bring you quality you can count on. Whether you are looking for organic, kosher, or gluten free, we offer a range of compliance documentation to suit the needs of each customer.

Direct Global Sourcing
We act as a direct source for bridging the physical gap between producer and buyer. While many organizations go through third parties to obtain their products, we firmly believe in building a relationship directly with our source. Whether South America or Asia, we work with our global partners personally to ensure our products are of the highest quality and best price.

Risk Management
Food ingredients are susceptible to price instability and supply uncertainty. We understand these market conditions and look ahead for our customers to proactively minimize these risks. We have up-to-date knowledge of global trends, and we maintain a sizable inventory in our US warehouses to respond to market demands. If there is a specific ingredient you need, we can work with you to provide on time delivery at a secure price.

Customer Care
We spend considerable time developing a trustful relationship with our client. Whether you are looking for a dependable source of bulk ingredients or a white label for your brand, we work hard to accommodate your needs

Our Values

“Never Let Good Be Enough”

Flexibility
We understand that demand for products varies. That’s why we come ready and prepared for any occasion. Whether it be a larger quantity or an entirely new product, we work with our customers to supply the product they need in a timely manner.

Reliability
In a business as time sensitive as agricultural commodities, we understand the importance of being a dependable. We build our business connections through consistent deliveries and constant contact. Our team works hard to ensure that you get what you want, when you want it, every time.

Transparency
Trading in this industry is often complicated. With multiple layers of bureaucracy and different actors involved, it can be easy to lose track of who has handled your product. At Spiceworks, we work to mitigate this problem. As the direct importer of our commodities, we minimize the number of actors involved so that you don’t have to worry about where your product has been.

About Our CEO

Born into an agricultural family in Atlanta, GA, Danté Alexander worked alongside his grandfather at their local produce company. There, he learned the importance of building trust within his community through honesty and hard work. He proceeded to obtain a Bachelor degree in International Business from Georgia State University and minor degree in Middle Eastern Studies and Arabic from Emory University, where he developed his expertise on international trade. He would then proceed to found Alexander Commercial Enterprises (ACE) in order to build his trade repertoire. Through a combination of the morals he learned at his family’s business and the expertise he developed from ACE, Dante formed Spiceworks. The goal? To create trading land-bridge to bring international buyers and sellers closer together.
