Citrus
Small citrus, oranges, lemons and grapefruit from five growing basins
Citrus is the deepest line in our sourcing network, with volume spread across Berkane, the Beni Mellal-Khenifra plains, Gharb, Marrakech-Safi and Sousse. Because each basin peaks at a slightly different moment, we can hold a programme steady from October through July and switch packing houses mid-season without breaking a specification. Certifications are available across our network, including organic blocks used to compete directly with Spanish and Turkish supply.
