- Defective and over-ripe fruit removed before packing
Shipping

Frequently asked questions
Can you supply fresh fruit all year?
Some lines are available for much of the year thanks to Uganda's two rainy seasons; others are seasonal. We confirm realistic windows for each enquiry.
Do you ship by air or sea?
Both. Highly perishable fruit usually travels by air; hardier fruit can travel in reefer containers when timing allows.
What documents come with fresh fruit?
Typically a phytosanitary certificate, commercial invoice, packing list and air waybill or bill of lading. Destination-specific documents are confirmed per order.
