Turkey is one of Israel's closest and most diverse sources of imports: textiles, food, building materials, packaging, furniture, machinery and more. But importing from Turkey well takes close work with suppliers, accurate documents and coordination on both sides.
The Lion Logistics has a team in Turkey: someone on our side talks to the supplier in their language, makes sure the goods are ready and the documents are right, and coordinates loading. In Israel, our customs broker handles clearance and delivery to you.

Frequently asked questions
How long does ocean freight from Turkey to Israel take?
The sailing itself is relatively short – usually from a few days to about two weeks, depending on the port and the line. Supplier preparation, loading and clearance in Israel add to the total. We'll give you the expected timeline in the quote.
Full container or part-load?
When your goods fill most of a container, a full container (FCL) is usually cheaper. For smaller volumes, a part-load (LCL) lets you pay for the actual volume or weight. We'll recommend based on your shipment.
Can you find me a supplier in Turkey?
Yes. Based on the product, quantities and target budget, our team finds suppliers and factories and supports you through the order.
Who handles customs in Israel?
Our customs broker – including classification, permits, duty payment and release.
