The factory must operate with dedicated, specialized teams assigned to each processing station (dozens of trained personnel per line), so that every 1 kg package is standardized with the same number of heads/legs and a consistent yield. Required sequence:

To date we have sourced our product from Vietnam and Thailand. Due to supply constraints and our intention to develop a new sourcing base in Indonesia, we are seeking a reliable baby octopus processing factory partner. This Letter of Intent expresses our sincere interest in establishing a long-term supply partnership, subject to sample approval and a final purchase agreement. The factory must operate with dedicated, specialized teams assigned to each processing station (dozens of trained personnel per line), so that every 1 kg package is standardized with the same number of heads/legs and a consistent yield. Required sequence: Initial washing and removal of foreign matter / impurities. Moisture removed using dewatering machine and food-grade agent. Divided into 1 kg portions, counting the number of heads and legs per pack. Arranged neatly in square trays for uniform presentation. Quick-frozen (IQF / block) to lock in freshness. Packed in poly bags, then into master cartons.
This Letter of Intent is non-binding and expresses our genuine interest to purchase, subject to a definitive supply agreement. • We request product samples for quality evaluation prior to the first commercial order. • Please advise: unit price (FOB/CFR), size grades, head/leg count per 1 kg pack, yield, minimum shelf life, HACCP/BRC and export certifications, and lead time. • Preferred payment and delivery terms (e.g., Incoterms, L/C or T/T) to be mutually agreed. • We look forward to building a long-term, mutually beneficial partnership
• Packing unit: please pack 6 kg per box (master carton). • The 6 kg must be the NET weight of the RAW product after thawing — NOT the frozen weight. In other words, the product should be packed so that once fully thawed the raw content weighs 6 kg. • Accordingly, the frozen packed weight should be close to 7 kg per box (to compensate for glaze / thaw drip loss and still yield 6 kg of thawed raw product). • Cooking yield: when the thawed 6 kg of raw product is boiled, the yield must be at least 80% — i.e., 4.8 kg or more.
