Shipping Information
Exporter details revealed after verified importer registration
A wholesale fresh fruit supplier sources, grades, and ships fruit at bulk volumes to global importers, distributors, and retail chains, coordinating everything from farm-gate procurement through customs documentation and container loading. Based in Kolkata, we draw on West Bengal's own horticulture strength (Malda's mango orchards and Murshidabad's litchi groves, among India's most productive) while sourcing additional fruit categories, citrus, banana, coconut, pomegranate, and seasonal specialty items, through an established procurement network across other Indian states. For global importers, working with a Kolkata-based wholesale supplier means one point of contact managing multiple fruit categories, consolidated shipment scheduling through Kolkata Port and Haldia, and the phytosanitary, fumigation, and Certificate of Origin documentation customs authorities require for fresh produce.
| Fruit Category | Primary Sourcing Region | Typical Shipping Mode |
|---|---|---|
| Mango (Himsagar, Langra, Fazli) | Malda, West Bengal | Air or reefer sea, season-dependent |
| Mango (Alphonso, Banganapalli) | Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh | Air (premium) or reefer sea (bulk) |
| Litchi | Murshidabad, West Bengal; Bihar | Air freight (short shelf life) |
| Banana | Tamil Nadu; Maharashtra | Reefer sea container |
| Fresh Lemon/Citrus | Maharashtra; Andhra Pradesh | Reefer sea container |
| Fresh Coconut | West Bengal coastal belt; South India (bulk volume) | Reefer sea container |
| Pomegranate (Bhagwa) | Maharashtra (Solapur, Nashik, Sangli) | Reefer sea container (long shelf life) |
| Guava | Karnataka; Uttar Pradesh; Bihar | Air freight |
Availability follows each fruit's harvest calendar and is not year-round across every category. Confirm current-season stock and specific variety before placing a bulk order.
Fruit with longer shelf life, mango varieties with extended cold storage tolerance, banana, coconut, citrus, and pomegranate, ships economically in reefer containers, and this is where true bulk wholesale volume makes financial sense. A full 40ft reefer typically holds 18-21 metric tons depending on the product, and per-kilo freight cost drops meaningfully compared to smaller shipments.
Litchi, guava, and premium-grade mango destined for high-end retail need air freight's speed to arrive within their usable shelf life, and no amount of cold chain management makes sea freight viable for these categories over long distances. Buyers should expect a materially higher per-kilo cost here, offset by the fact that there often isn't a sea-freight alternative that preserves quality for these specific products.
Kolkata combines genuine horticultural strength, Malda mango and Murshidabad litchi sit within a few hours of the city, with port and airport infrastructure that supports both bulk sea shipment and time-sensitive air cargo. Rail and road connectivity extend this reach to growing regions across the rest of India for fruit categories the immediate region doesn't produce at export scale. For global importers managing multiple fruit categories, this means consolidating sourcing and documentation through one supplier rather than coordinating separately with growers and shippers across several Indian states.
Corrugated export cartons (4kg-20kg depending on fruit type) with ventilation for airflow during transit. Ventilated mesh bags for bulk coconut. Insulated cartons with gel packs for air-freighted categories like litchi and guava. Palletized loading for both reefer sea container and air cargo, with custom branding and private label packaging available on bulk orders.
Phytosanitary certificate from the Plant Quarantine Department for every shipment, fumigation certificate where required by destination country, APEDA registration, Certificate of Origin. Treatment certification (hot water, vapor heat, or cold treatment) available where required for specific fruit categories and destination markets. Organic certification available on request for select produce.
A multi-product wholesale supplier based in West Bengal typically offers mango and litchi from local growing regions, along with citrus, banana, coconut, pomegranate, and guava sourced from other Indian states through an established procurement network. Availability follows each fruit's own harvest calendar rather than being year-round for every category.
Fruit with a longer effective shelf life, such as pomegranate, banana, coconut, and citrus, ships economically by reefer sea container at bulk volumes. Highly perishable categories like litchi and guava need air freight's speed to arrive within a usable shelf life, since sea freight isn't a viable option for these products regardless of cold chain quality.
Every shipment needs a phytosanitary certificate from India's Plant Quarantine Department and a Certificate of Origin. Some fruit categories and destination markets additionally require fumigation certificates or specific treatment certification, such as hot water treatment for certain mango varieties.
MOQ depends on the fruit type and shipping mode. Air-freighted perishable categories typically start around 200kg to 1 metric ton, while reefer sea container bulk orders generally start at 1 FCL, roughly 18-21 metric tons depending on the specific fruit. Confirm the MOQ for your target product and season directly.
Kolkata combines genuine local horticultural strength in mango and litchi with port and airport infrastructure supporting both sea and air shipment, plus rail connectivity to growing regions elsewhere in India. This lets importers consolidate multiple fruit categories through a single supplier and documentation process rather than coordinating separately across several states.
