Our Fresh Lemons are premium-quality citrus fruits sourced from the renowned agricultural regions of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Gujarat. Available in three distinct varieties—Kagzi (Indian Lime), Eureka, and Tahiti/Persian—each type caters to specific market needs based on juice content, rind thickness, size, and acidity levels. The Kagzi variety boasts a high juice content of 42-48%, making it ideal for beverage and food processing industries. Eureka lemons are characterized by their thick rind, ensuring extended shelf life and suitability for long-distance transportation. Tahiti/Persian lemons offer larger size and milder acidity, preferred in fresh fruit markets and culinary applications. These lemons exhibit a vibrant yellow color with 90% uniform maturity, Grade A sizing of 50-70mm diameter, and a balanced Brix value ranging from 6 to 8 degrees, ensuring rich flavor and optimal acidity. Packaged thoughtfully in 5kg or 10kg ventilated mesh bags for bulk orders and 2kg retail packs in Euro cartons, the product maintains freshness during transit and storage. With a shelf life of 4-6 weeks under controlled temperature and humidity (8-10°C and 85-90% RH) and up to 3 months with wax coating, these lemons cater efficiently to both fresh produce markets and food processing chains. Equipped with certifications including APEDA registration, GlobalGAP, ISO 22000, and phytosanitary compliance, our Fresh Lemons are guaranteed for quality, safety, and international trade standards, making them a highly reliable choice for B2B buyers in wholesale, retail, and processing sectors.
