Order-specific export planning

Use these fields to qualify an enquiry. They remain indicative until the selected crop, source, packhouse, route and written order specification are confirmed.

Growing regions

Egyptian Nile Valley, Nile Delta and approved reclaimed-land production areas suited to the crop; the exact farm and packing origin is confirmed for the selected lot.

Grade options

Applicable export class options and buyer-specific grading can be discussed. Final class, size range, appearance criteria and tolerances are agreed in writing for the order.

Cartons per pallet

Calculated after the final carton dimensions, pallet base, gross weight and stacking pattern are approved. The confirmed figure is stated in the quotation.

Indicative load planning

The choice between a dry, ventilated or reefer container depends on product condition, route and the agreed protocol. Pallet and container counts are confirmed only after the final pack and carrier limits are known.

Normal transport method

Sea or regional road freight in a dry, ventilated or reefer unit, selected from product condition, season, transit and buyer protocol.

Private label

Available subject to approved artwork, destination-label compliance, packhouse capability, minimum run and preparation lead time.

Testing options

Inspection, residue or other agreed testing can be coordinated for the selected lot. Scope, laboratory, sampling and acceptance criteria must be agreed before order confirmation.

Source-specific certification

GLOBALG.A.P., GRASP, HACCP or other scheme status is verified for the selected farm and packhouse before contracting; no status is implied for every source.

Current commercial status
