The menu decides the catalogue item, not the other way round. A burger, a pizza and a vertical spit need three different cuts in three different pack formats. If you run — or supply — a food-service business in Moldova, what follows is the direct mapping: every dish tied to a real line in the carne.md catalogue. Where the honest answer is “it depends”, we say it depends.
Burger bar: formed patty or your own grind
The short route is the pre-formed patty. In frozen beef there is 100% beef burger patty Skott Smeat, 720 g box, frozen: portions already formed, weight consistent from box to box. For a small kitchen that removes two problems at once — no grinding station, and no time lost forming patties in the rush.
If you want your own blend, call our sales desk and ask which beef cuts are available for grinding in that period; the set in stock changes. One clarification worth making: Pork trimmings 70/30 and Pork trimmings 80/20 are pork, as the names say, not beef. Kitchens use them in blends for fat content, but they are not a beef substitute. The rest of the beef range is portion-grill material, not grinding stock: the catalogue lists “Ribeye steak, aged beef (frozen), Skott Smeat”, plus T-bone, striploin and ossobuco steaks from the same brand.
Pizzeria: the chicken that survives the oven
Boneless thigh forgives more than breast does. A pizza oven runs hot and fast, and thinly cut breast dries out inside exactly that window. Chicken thigh fillet Qualiko (boneless, skinless), 10 kg — frozen cubes or strips easily and stays juicy even when a slice is reheated, which matters if you sell by the piece.
If the recipe calls for clean strips of white meat, take Chicken breast Qualiko, frozen; for smaller volumes and fast portioning, Chicken fillet Qualiko, chilled, retail from chilled chicken. All chicken under the Qualiko brand is produced by MHP — details on the Qualiko page.
Kebab and gyros: what goes on the spit
For chicken there is a line built for the vertical spit: Shawarma chicken Qualiko, frozen, 10 kg. The same Chicken thigh fillet Qualiko (boneless, skinless), 10 kg also layers well on the spit.
For pork, Pork collar, boneless, 20 kg — frozen from frozen pork, or chilled Pork collar if you marinate on delivery day. The intramuscular fat in the collar keeps the meat soft on the spit; leg and shoulder dry out faster under the same heat.
A point that gets confused often: the producer’s Halal certificate covers poultry. The pork, beef and turkey in the catalogue are not under it. If your venue operates Halal, the conversation is about a chicken spit only. The producer’s certifications, including BRCGS Food Safety for food safety, are published as full-size scans on the About us page and on every product sheet.
Pub: wings and the fryer
Packaging matters more here than it looks. Chicken wings Qualiko, frozen, 10.8 kg (0.900×12) describes the structure of the case: twelve units of roughly 0.900 kg, not a single 10.8 kg block you open once. Whether each unit is wrapped individually varies by line and is worth confirming with our sales desk. For a bar with weekend peaks, that case structure is what lets you plan by the evening rather than by the week.
Alternatives: “Chicken wings Qualiko, chilled, 7.2 kg (0.900×8), retail”, if the kitchen works from chilled, and “Turkey wings, 10 kg” if you want a bigger piece at the same menu portion. For the fryer, from semi-finished products — our coated and ready-to-cook lines: Chicken popcorn Qualiko, frozen, 1 kg, Breaded chicken sticks Qualiko, frozen, 500 g and Nuggets Homestyle Qualiko, frozen, 1 kg. Portioning by the gram, no prep work.
Summer terrace: skewers and the grill
Grill-ready: Chicken breast mini skewers “Herbs and Onion” Qualiko, chilled, 1 kg, Mititei dinProvincie (beef and pork) — Romanian grilled minced-meat rolls — and Sausages dinProvincie; dinProvincie is the company’s own brand. If you marinate yourself, the usual starting point is chilled Pork collar, plus Pork ribs, 10 kg — frozen for a wider grill menu.
Asian kitchen: teriyaki and karaage
Both dishes are thigh dishes, not breast dishes. Karaage is cubed from boneless skinless thigh fillet, because the fat keeps the meat soft in hot oil. Teriyaki also works on thigh when you want caramelised sauce on a thick piece; breast is used only if you slice thin and finish fast on the plancha.
One technical note: Minced chicken Qualiko (MDM), frozen is mechanically deboned meat, raw material for further-processing manufacturers, not kitchen mince. Do not order it for burgers or menu patties.
What gets confirmed by phone

Whether that threshold can be assembled from several lines in your case — wings, thigh fillet and semi-finished products in one order — is worth confirming with us: it depends on the products. We deliver in Chisinau and across Moldova with an unbroken cold chain; the lead time is confirmed when the order is placed. We do not process online payments: orders go through the order form, by phone or via WhatsApp, and transport conditions are on the delivery page.
