Why Choose Egyptian Golden Onions for Your Market?
Answers to essential questions for international fresh produce importers.
What makes the quality of Egyptian Golden Onions unique?
Grown in the nutrient-rich Nile Delta and sunny desert lands, our Golden onions possess a high dry-matter content and thick, protective outer skins. This results in a robust pungent flavor and a significantly longer shelf life compared to other origins, making them perfect for long-distance sea freight.
How do you guarantee precise sizing and quality?
We offer dual sorting flexibility. Our Machine Sorting lines provide high-speed, accurate diameter calibration (e.g., 40-80mm). For premium retail orders, we utilize Manual Sorting where trained specialists inspect every bulb for skin integrity and firmness, ensuring only Class 1 onions are packed.
What are your minimum order and logistics terms?
We accommodate bulk orders starting from one 40ft Reefer container (approx. 25-29 Tons). We provide flexible shipping terms (FOB, CNF, CIF) to all major ports in Europe, Asia, and the Gulf, with full documentation for seamless customs clearance.
