Pears (Nashpati)
Common questions from importers about sourcing, quality, and exporting Pears (Nashpati) from India.
-
When is the peak season for Indian Pear exports?The primary export season for Indian pears, sourced from the temperate orchards of Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir, runs from July to September. During this time, the fruit achieves its best crunch, juice content, and flavor profile.
-
How are pears shipped to ensure they don't lose their crispness?Pears are pre-cooled immediately after harvest and shipped in reefer containers at a strict temperature of 0-1°C with 90% relative humidity. This 'storage' temperature ensures they remain crisp and do not ripen prematurely during the sea voyage.
-
Which pear varieties are most popular for international supply?We export premium varieties such as 'Patharnakh' (known for its extreme crispness and long shelf life) and 'Babugosha' (a semi-soft, aromatic variety). These are highly sought after in Southeast Asian and Middle Eastern markets.
-
What are the packaging standards and shelf life for exported pears?Pears are packed in 10kg or 15kg telescopic corrugated fiberboard boxes with tray inserts to prevent movement. Under a consistent cold chain at 0°C, Indian pears have an impressive export shelf life of 30 to 45 days.
