When to order, which varieties to ask for, and how to plan your purchasing around the harvest.
Egypt is one of the largest citrus exporters in the world, and its main season runs through the cooler months. Timing your orders to the harvest gives you the best quality and price.
Plan around the harvest
Early-season fruit is usually smaller and greener, while mid-season fruit is at its sweetest and most consistent. Talk to us early about the size and color you want.
Ask about varieties
- Navel oranges: seedless and sweet, popular for fresh eating.
- Valencia oranges: juicy, later in the season and good for juice.
- Mandarins and tangerines: easy to peel, in high demand from retailers.
- Lemons: available for much of the year.
