Popular Indian fruits for export
Buyers commonly import mango, banana, pomegranate, guava, papaya, sapota (chikoo), coconut and amla (Indian gooseberry), alongside citrus and other seasonal fruit.
Plan around the seasons
Many fruits are seasonal. Mango, for example, is harvested in India mainly from spring into early summer. Share your preferred shipment dates early so your supplier can confirm which varieties will be available.
Sorting and packing
Fruit is picked at the right stage for the journey, then sorted for consistent size and colour and checked for damage. Export cartons protect the fruit from bruising and allow ventilation, and are palletised for air or sea freight.
Air or sea?
Soft or short-life fruit and time-sensitive orders usually go by air. Fruit that holds well over a longer journey, such as coconut, can move by sea in larger volumes at a lower cost per kilo.
Plant-health requirements
Most destinations require a phytosanitary certificate for fresh fruit, and some require specific treatments for certain fruits before they can be imported. Check the rules for each fruit with your plant-health authority or customs broker before ordering.
