More about pomegranates

Early-season advantage from Peru

Peru has become a significant Southern Hemisphere supplier of pomegranates, with exports concentrated early in the year and growing in recent seasons, ideal for early programs into Europe. 

Varietal focus

Programs typically center on the ‘Wonderful’ variety, valued for color, juice and ship-ability across weeks of transit. 

Origins and seasons

Peruvian pomegranate exports generally run from February through June, with production concentrated in Ica and Arequipa: regions known for dry climates that favor quality. 

Packaging and handling

Maintaining crown integrity, calibrating size and monitoring internal condition are key. Dry, cool storage and careful grading help ensure clean arrivals and strong shelf presentation.
