FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Afghan black raisins typically feature an elongated, slender shape with a subtle, well-balanced sweet-tart profile. In contrast, Uzbek raisins are rounder, bulkier, and noticeably fleshier. The Afghan variety provides excellent volume-to-weight visual distribution in mixed nut packaging.

The standard product is 100% natural, free from paraffin waxes and synthetic glazing agents. Only upon explicit buyer specification for high-speed automated packaging lines is an ultra-fine coating (below 0.5%) of non-GMO refined sunflower oil applied to prevent clumping.

The cultivar is agronomically seedless. Under international dried fruit tolerances, underdeveloped soft rudimentary seed traces may rarely occur. The presence of fully developed hard seeds remains strictly below 0.1% by weight, fully compliant with international food standards.

Cartons are constructed from 5-ply heavy-duty kraft corrugated cardboard with superior box compression test (BCT) ratings. The food-grade inner polybag creates a hermetic barrier against atmospheric humidity fluctuations and dust during long transit routes.

All consignments undergo standard professional fumigation under regulatory oversight using approved protocols (e.g., controlled phosphine treatment). This ensures the total eradication of insect stages and larvae without exceeding residue thresholds established by destination market authorities.

The minimum wholesale order quantity is set at 100 kg (10 standard master cartons). For export contracts, shipments can be structured under Incoterms rules such as EXW, FOB Bandar Abbas, or FCA border points with full inspection documentation.

Contract packaging and private label solutions (doypack pouches, pillow packs, or PET tubs) are fully supported for annual bulk contract holders, subject to packaging material MOQs and branding compliance agreements.
