Mandarins

Mandarin · Export variety

We export Murcott-type mandarins: sweet, juicy, seedless easy-peels with a thin skin and a golden-orange colour that works in retail nets and gift trays. Flesh is orange with a hint of yellow, sweetness in front, acidity kept low — the profile easy-peel buyers expect from Egyptian winter citrus. The season runs January to April, filling the window after navel oranges are underway and overlapping the start of Valencia. Pack for wholesale importers who need an Egyptian mandarin programme, not a one-off mixed citrus pallet. Cold-chain handling keeps the peel intact and the juice in the fruit.
