When is the peak export season for Indian Cauliflower?The primary export season for Indian Cauliflower is from November to March when the quality and curd size are optimal.

What are the packaging and cold chain requirements for shipping Cauliflower?Cauliflowers are packed in 7kg to 12kg corrugated fiberboard (CFB) boxes with protective foam or paper lining to prevent bruising.
