▸ About this program

Origin character, audited soil, packed to spec.

Adalia is the dominant Egyptian export lemon and is marketed in some destinations as Eureka. Bright yellow skin, juicy acidic flesh, and an aromatic peel that releases real essential-oil character when zested. The fruit anchors retail lemonade, mixology and bakery programs across the EU and the GCC. We pre-cool to 8–10 °C and pack across both retail-friendly 7.5 kg trays and 15 kg bulk formats. Calibres are graded across six size classes for exact spec matching.
