Egypt

Egypt is often called the gift of the Nile. For thousands of years the river has carried rich silt down from the south, building the fertile valley and delta that feed the country to this day. Almost all farming happens on this narrow ribbon of green between the deserts.

The climate gives Egyptian growers a remarkable advantage: abundant sunshine, mild winters and a growing season that runs almost all year. Citrus ripens in the Delta through the winter, mangoes fill Ismailia's orchards in summer, and in the south, Upper Egypt's dry heat suits dates, sugar cane, hibiscus and pomegranates.

We work with growers and packers who combine this heritage with modern standards of grading, cooling and documentation, so each product reaches you with its quality — and its story — intact.
