This is an independent guide, not the store’s own website. Blue Fig International Market has no official site, so everything below comes from public listings and local news, with dates, and anything unconfirmed is marked as such.

What is Blue Fig International Market?

Blue Fig International Market is a specialty grocery store in East Plano that stocks halal meat and food from the Mediterranean, the Arab world, South Asia and Europe. Zabihah describes the range as Mediterranean, Arabic, Indo-Pak and European products.

Community Impact reported in 2021 that owner Walid Radwan and his father-in-law Ziad Nowar opened the store in December 2017, with Ahmad Nasrallah as store manager. CultureMap Dallas described it in 2018 as a family-owned shop and said the owners named it after blue figs, a fruit they felt few local stores carried.

What are the hours and where is it?

The store is open daily from 9 AM to 9 PM according to Google Maps, read on November 13, 2026. It sits at 4101 E Park Blvd #135, Plano, TX 75074, at the corner of East Park Boulevard and Los Rios Boulevard.

One caution about the opening time. Zabihah shows 10 AM to 9 PM daily, and a 2021 Community Impact article also said 10 AM, so the opening time appears to have moved earlier. Call (972) 258-3344 to be sure, especially before a holiday. The hours and location page of this guide keeps the full details.

What departments does Blue Fig International Market have?

The store has a halal butchery and deli, daily-delivered fresh produce, bread, cheese, sweets, canned and dried goods, and a large European section. These departments appear across Community Impact, CultureMap Dallas and Zabihah.

• Halal meat counter and deli: lamb, chicken, goat and beef, plus sliced deli meats.
• Produce: fruit and vegetables delivered daily, and the namesake blue figs.
• Bread and snacks: fresh pita from Baklava Bakery and a pita snack topped with Arabic oregano.
• Cheese: imported cheeses from Mediterranean and European suppliers.
• Sweets and pantry: imported European chocolates, sweets, and canned and dried goods from Turkey, Russia, Pakistan and elsewhere.
• Drinks and frozen: Vimto and other imported sodas, and Arabic-style ice cream.

The menu page of this guide lists these departments in one place. Stock varies, so none of it is a guarantee of what is on the shelf today.

Is the meat at Blue Fig International Market halal?

Zabihah lists the store as fully halal, and Community Impact says the meat is halal. The Zabihah note adds that this rests on the store’s own statement, and no certifying body is named in any source.

Shoppers who need a specific certification or slaughter method should ask the staff at the counter. This guide does not make religious rulings and only reports what the listings say.

What sells best at Blue Fig International Market?

Community Impact reported that lamb and chicken lead sales, followed by cheese, with fresh pita from Baklava Bakery also a top seller. It also mentions Dorper lamb, a breed of sheep.

That ranking comes from a 2021 article, so treat it as a guide to what the store has been known for rather than a current sales list. CultureMap Dallas noted in 2018 that an oregano-topped pita snack was a bestseller at that time.

Does Blue Fig International Market have prepared food?

Possibly, but the details are not confirmed. Atly mentions a small onsite grill for quick bites, and in 2018 the owners said they planned to add ready-to-eat falafel and hummus. No grill menu or current prepared-food list was found.

If you plan a meal rather than a shopping trip, call (972) 258-3344 and ask what is ready that day. Zabihah also lists a prayer area, restrooms, to-go and WiFi.

What should you ask about before you go?

Call ahead for anything that decides the trip. The store publishes no stock list and no prices, so the phone is the reliable channel.

1. Confirm today’s opening time, since sources disagree on 9 AM and 10 AM.
2. Ask whether the cut of lamb, goat, beef or chicken you want is at the counter.
3. Ask whether prepared items such as falafel, hummus or grill food are available.
4. Ask whether marinated kofta meat, which a visitor mentioned, is in the case.
5. If you need a specific import or brand, ask before you drive.

Why is it called Blue Fig?

The store is named after the fruit. Blue figs are the dark, purple-blue skinned figs that the owners said few shops near them stocked, and the namesake fruit is listed with the produce. Whether fresh figs are in season on a given day is a question for the store.

How can you use this store for home cooking?

Blue Fig International Market suits cooks who want Mediterranean and Middle Eastern ingredients in one stop: halal lamb or chicken, fresh pita, cheese, produce and pantry goods. Many dishes in this guide start from those shelves.

A simple plan is to buy meat at the counter, pita and cheese for the table, and vegetables and herbs from the produce section. Dishes such as shish tawook, kibbeh or a Greek spinach pie use items from several departments, though this guide does not claim the store stocks any particular brand. Ask staff for help finding an ingredient, since no aisle map or product list is published.
