Ghumash Apple and Pomegranate Fruit Leather Sheet

The formulation utilizes natural apple puree as the structural foundation (approx. 65-70% of fruit solids) blended with high-grade pomegranate concentrate (30-35%). Apple puree provides elasticity, smooth chew, and texture consistency, while the pomegranate extract imparts authentic tanginess and ruby pigmentation without synthetic colors.

Final moisture content is tightly controlled between 12% and 15%, maintaining a water activity (aw) threshold strictly beneath 0.60. This controlled physicochemical equilibrium inhibits microbial and fungal proliferation naturally, safeguarding biological stability over the entire 12-month ambient shelf life.

Each sheet is layered against sanitary food-grade release liner, sealed in outer metallized pouches, and packed into master cartons containing 24 or 48 retail units. The 5-ply shipping boxes incorporate inner corrugated dividing grids to disperse gravitational pressure and protect sheet flat geometry from compressive warping.

The backing sheet utilizes engineered Cast Polypropylene (CPP) or siliconized BOPP films exhibiting high non-stick (Easy Peel) release dynamics against natural fruit sugars. Controlled thermal processing eliminates surface caramelization and syrup bleeding, ensuring smooth consumer separation even at ambient temperatures up to 30°C.

Per 50g reference serving, energy content averages 130-140 kcal, natural fruit sugars approx. 28g, added refined sodium chloride less than 0.8g, and zero fat. These metrics are confirmed within the Green Apple traffic-light regulatory panel, establishing the SKU as a high-fiber, low-sodium, vegan alternative snack.

Pomegranate represents an iconic Iranian flavor profile, making this blended SKU an exceptional fast-moving leader across Erbil, Baghdad, Baku, and regional trade corridors. Backed by attractive shelf-stable packaging and competitive pricing, regional importers frequently order full-container loads due to robust consumer turnover.

Wholesale MOQ starts at 50 master cartons. Volumes exceeding 200 cartons attract an immediate 5% commercial rebate, scaling up to 10% for full truckload (FTL) orders. For foreign export procurement, contracts are structured under Ex-Works (EXW) or Free Carrier (FCA) terms, fully including palletization and customs documentation.
