FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about sourcing coconut from Aethon Overseas.

Yes, Indian coconuts, especially from the southern coastal regions, are harvested and available for export throughout the year. We ensure a consistent supply of both mature (semi-husked) and tender green coconuts.

Mature semi-husked coconuts are typically shipped in ventilated sea containers at ambient temperatures. Tender green coconuts, however, require refrigerated containers (reefer) maintained at 0-2°C to preserve the water content and freshness of the kernel.

We specialize in premium coconuts from the Pollachi region (Tamil Nadu) and the West Coast. These areas are globally renowned for producing coconuts with high oil content, thick kernels, and sweet water.

Semi-husked coconuts are packed in 13kg or 25kg PP (polypropylene) bags (approx. 25-50 nuts per bag). Under proper ventilation, mature coconuts have an extensive export shelf life of 60 to 90 days.
