The Journey of Every Kernel
From the orchards of Kashmar to your warehouse, every lot passes through the same five stages. Watch how one harvest becomes a sealed container.
-
01
Orchard
Family-run orchards in Kashmar, irrigated and pruned through the year for consistent kernel size.
-
02
Harvest
Picked and hulled within hours, so the shell stays pale and the kernel keeps its colour.
-
03
Sorting
Optical and laser sorting by size, colour and defect, then a manual final pass.
-
04
Packing
Vacuum, nitrogen-flush or bulk sacks, sealed and labelled for your destination market.
-
05
Shipping
Documents, inspection and container loading at Bandar Abbas, tracked through to arrival.
- Optical and laser sorting for size and colour uniformity
- Moisture-controlled storage and vacuum or nitrogen-flush options
- Lot-level traceability from orchard to bill of lading
