About HALBEX
HALBEX is building a B2B international export marketplace focused exclusively on halal FMCG food products sourced from India and supplied to international buyers.
We follow a merchant-trader model in which HALBEX manages the commercial transaction between Indian suppliers and international buyers, coordinating product compliance, seller onboarding, export documentation, and logistics.
We are currently in the pre-launch stage, preparing for our planned commercial launch in March 2027.
About the Role
We are looking for a hands-on professional to join HALBEX's founding team and help build our food sourcing and export operations from the ground up.
The first priority is to identify reliable Indian farmers, FPOs, processors, millers, and suppliers who can provide export-quality spices, dry fruits, and grains at competitive prices.
The selected candidate will work directly with the founder and gradually establish the supplier network, product onboarding processes, compliance data, logistics partnerships, and shipment execution workflow required for HALBEX.
This is a founding-stage role requiring practical execution, independent research, supplier coordination, and ownership of day-to-day operational tasks.
