Fresh Fruits
Table grapes, mango, mandarin
Table grapes, mango and mandarin — with pomegranate and banana, the fruits that carry most of India's fresh fruit export volume. Thompson, Sonaka and Sharad Seedless grapes; Alphonso and Kesar mango; Nagpur mandarin. Each has its own protocol and its own season, so they are quoted separately even when they load together.

Classification
Grapes for the EU are traced to the farm plot through GrapeNet and residue-tested before harvest, so the panel is designed for your market in advance. Mango is treated — hot water, vapour heat or irradiation — at a facility approved for your destination. Tell us the destination and the retailer's standard at enquiry and we quote the protocol with the price.
The values above are the parameters we quote against and have verified at the load port. Where your own requirement is tighter, yours governs and we quote to it.
