FAQ
Shipments undergo post-harvest pre-cooling and are loaded into reefer containers strictly calibrated at 10–12°C with 85–90% relative humidity to preserve flesh turgidity and prevent chill damage.
The standard MOQ is one full 40ft reefer container (approx. 20–22 MT). Packaging options include reinforced 5-ply cartons with cell dividers (2–4 fruits per box) or 500kg heavy-duty industrial bins on standard pallets.
Contracted Minab farms operate under strict oversight. Every export batch is tested via comprehensive multi-residue pesticide screening and accompanied by official phytosanitary and organic conformity certificates.
Featuring an 11–13° Brix range, the pineapple-yellow flesh has a delicate honeyed aroma, lower fibrous pulp, and a crisper bite, making it a high-margin gourmet specialty in premium produce retail.
Fruit sorting utilizes mechanical weight-graders, grouping melons into precise calibers (3–5 kg or 5–7 kg classes per client specification) ensuring uniform pallet stacking and retail carton presentation.
Thanks to southern Iran's mild subtropical winters, Minab yields early off-season crops from late November through April, creating an ideal supply window for winter produce markets in Eurasia and the Gulf.
