Egyptian oranges are one of the most consistently traded export crops from Egypt, with demand driven by volume buyers in the Gulf, Africa, and Europe. The main attraction for importers is the combination of Nile Delta growing conditions, competitive pricing, and a clear seasonality window that allows forward planning.
Cairo Fields handles orange programs on a volume basis — full container and multi-container supply, not spot pallets. Our approach is to confirm variety, sizing, carton format, and destination requirements upfront, then plan sourcing and packing around those parameters. Buyers get consistency across shipments, not variation by load.
What wholesale and retail buyers typically specify:
- Navel or Valencia, or a seasonal switch between the two
- Calibre range (commonly 72–88mm for retail, 53–72mm for processing and food service)
- Carton weight and format (10kg, 15kg, or buyer-specified)
- Private label, neutral label, or Cairo Fields label
- Certificate requirements for destination country
- Target port of discharge and ETD window
If you are building a recurring orange supply program, we can discuss committed volumes per season, specification alignment, and documentation requirements in a pre-season planning call.
