Orange supplier 10kg citrus export carton high juice UAE bulk supply.
Shipping Information
Exporter details revealed after verified importer registration
Orange (Citrus sinensis and Citrus reticulata hybrids) supplied in the standard 10kg export carton is sourced from Nagpur, Maharashtra, home to the Nagpur Orange, one of India's most recognized citrus varieties and a Geographical Indication (GI) tagged product known for its thin, easy-peel skin and consistently high juice content. Nagpur sits at the center of Maharashtra's Vidarbha citrus belt, supported by decades of established grading, cold storage, and export infrastructure built specifically around this crop. For UAE importers and wholesale distributors, Nagpur-sourced orange in 10kg export packing offers a recognized origin variety, consistent size and juice-content grading, and the phytosanitary documentation Gulf customs authorities require for fresh produce.

A 10kg carton is a manageable retail-and-wholesale bridge size, light enough for manual handling at the receiving end while still supporting efficient container loading for bulk buyers. It's a common specification for citrus specifically because oranges don't need the extra-light individual handling that more delicate fruit requires, so a slightly heavier standard carton works well without added risk of bruising.
Some wholesale buyers and foodservice operations request 15kg or 20kg cartons to reduce the number of individual boxes handled per container, lowering labor cost at the receiving end for buyers with bulk redistribution operations. Retail-focused buyers sometimes prefer smaller 5kg cartons for direct shelf placement without repacking. Confirm your specific handling and distribution setup before defaulting to the 10kg standard.
Nagpur's reputation as India's orange capital didn't happen by accident, the Vidarbha region's soil and climate conditions are specifically suited to citrus cultivation, and generations of orchard management here have built grading standards and cold storage infrastructure around this single crop's export requirements. The GI tag on Nagpur Orange gives buyers a verifiable origin claim beyond generic "Indian orange" sourcing, which matters for premium retail positioning. Nagpur's established road and rail connectivity to India's major ports supports consistent export scheduling despite being an inland growing region.
10kg corrugated export cartons with ventilation holes for airflow during transit, the standard specification for this product. 5kg retail-ready cartons and 15-20kg bulk cartons available on request. Individual wax coating or food-grade preservative treatment available to extend shelf life during longer transit. Palletized loading for reefer container shipment.
Phytosanitary certificate from India's Plant Quarantine Department for every shipment, Certificate of Origin, GI certification for Nagpur Orange where applicable, pesticide residue test reports available per batch, APEDA registration.
Nagpur Orange holds Geographical Indication (GI) status and is known for its thin, easy-peel skin and notably high juice content, typically 40-45% by weight, compared to many standard orange varieties. It comes from Maharashtra's Vidarbha citrus belt, where growing conditions and decades of orchard management are specifically suited to this crop.
There are two main harvest windows: Ambia Bahar from December to February and Mrig Bahar from October to November. Combined with cold storage, this gives the crop a longer effective availability window than single-harvest fruits, though buyers should confirm current-season stock before ordering.
10kg cartons balance manageable handling weight with efficient container loading, and oranges tolerate this weight without the bruising risk more delicate fruit would face in the same carton size. Buyers with different handling setups can request 5kg retail cartons or 15-20kg bulk cartons instead.
Standard bulk orders start at 1 metric ton, with full-container orders typically running 1 FCL, a reefer container holding roughly 18-20 metric tons. Availability depends on the current harvest window, since Nagpur Orange has two distinct seasonal cycles rather than year-round fresh harvest.
Fresh oranges are classified under HS code 0805.10.00. Mandarin and hybrid citrus varieties sometimes fall under a separate subheading depending on the destination country's tariff schedule, so confirm the exact code with your customs broker before the first shipment.
