FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes, Indian papaya is a year-round crop. We source from high-tech farms in Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Andhra Pradesh to ensure a consistent supply of premium, export-quality fruit regardless of the season.
Papayas are harvested at a specific 'color break' stage (25-30% yellow) for export. They are shipped in refrigerated containers maintained at 7-10°C. This controlled temperature slows down the ripening process, ensuring the fruit reaches the destination with the perfect firmness.
The 'Taiwan Red Lady 786' is our flagship export variety. It is preferred globally for its non-GMO status, thick skin (which improves travelability), sweet red flesh, and consistent oval shape.
Each papaya is individually foam-wrapped and placed in 10kg or 12kg corrugated cartons with paper shavings for cushioning. Under proper reefer conditions, the export shelf life is between 7 to 14 days.
