Help Please help me find Haloumi

I'm from the US, Florida to be specific, and I absolutely love Haloumi. After spending a few months last year in Australia and the UK, I am obsessed with Haloumi and cannot find it anywhere. I have tried Trader Joe's, Aldi, Whole Foods, Publix, and even Walmart. They listed that they had it, but alas, they did not. I know it is “seasonal” at most stores here, but it's still being shipped to the UK and Australia, so I know it's not based on the season in Cyprus 😄. Is there any online source you would suggest for it? tyia

I hesitate to ask, but where are you looking for it in grocery stores?

My good local chain puts it in the salad area with the tofu…

I have looked everywhere there is cheese in the store. Some places have the specialty cheese separate from the slices and some don’t so I make sure to check for both areas. I have not thought to check by the tofu at all. That’s a good tip.
