At R&B International, we bridge the gap between India’s lush plantations and the global dinner table. Our G9 Cavendish Bananas are cultivated under stringent GlobalG.A.P protocols in the sun-drenched orchards of India, ensuring a product that is as nutritionally rich as it is visually perfect.
Why R&B International G9 Bananas are the Preferred Choice:
Extended "Green Life": We harvest our fruit at the precise 80% maturity mark. This, combined with our sophisticated cold-chain management, preserves the "Green Life" for up to 45 days, allowing for stress-free long-distance maritime transit.
Creamy Texture & Natural Sweetness: Unlike other varieties, the G9 Cavendish from India is celebrated for its soft, creamy pulp and a high Brix level that delivers a superior, naturally sweet flavor profile upon ripening.
Impeccable Presentation: Every hand is carefully selected, cleaned, and de-handed to ensure no latex staining or skin abrasions. Our bananas arrive at your warehouse with a clean, unblemished appearance that boosts retail appeal.
Year-Round Availability: With India’s diverse agro-climatic zones, R&B International ensures a consistent, 12-month supply chain, protecting our partners from seasonal price volatility and stock shortages.
From a quick energy-boosting snack to a staple ingredient in the global food industry, R&B International delivers G9 Cavendish Bananas that set the standard for quality, consistency, and freshness.
Note on Shipping: Since bananas are highly sensitive to ethylene (the ripening gas), mention to your buyers that your reefer containers utilize Ethylene Scrubbers. This is a major selling point that guarantees the fruit won't ripen prematurely during the voyage.
