Egyptian Orange Export

Oranges · Egypt

Egyptian oranges are a core winter export crop. We pack two varieties with two jobs: navel oranges from December through March for seedless, easy-peel fresh eating, and Valencia from February to May for juice and the late fresh market. That split is how serious buyers write specs — they do not want a generic “Egyptian orange” when the factory needs Valencia or the retailer needs navels. Fruit is grown for export on our Egyptian farms, inspected, cooled, and documented. If you run a citrus programme into Europe, Asia, or the Middle East, these two pages are the orange conversation; mandarins are listed separately.

  • Navel for eating, Valencia for juice

    Navels: sweet, seedless, easy to peel, December–March. Valencia: late, juicy, sweet-tart, February–May, including juice lines.

  • Export-grown, not surplus

    Both varieties are cultivated for export packing. We do not treat export as whatever is left after the Cairo wholesale markets.

  • Winter into late spring

    Together the two varieties cover Egyptian orange from December into May — a long citrus window from one origin.

Oranges export, answered

What orange varieties does Apricot Export export from Egypt?
Navel oranges for fresh eating (from December) and Valencia oranges for juicing and late-season fresh (February to May).
Are Egyptian navel oranges seedless?
Yes. Our export navels are packed as seedless, easy-peel eating oranges. Valencia typically contains a small number of seeds and is specified separately.
When should I switch from navel to Valencia?
Navels run through March. Valencia starts in February, so overlap weeks are useful for mixed programmes; by April–May the export orange line is Valencia.
