Product Description
Zesty, Juicy, and Pure: R&B International Premium Lemons
R&B International is a leading exporter of the finest Indian Lemons, sourced from the sun-drenched citrus orchards of Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh. Our lemons are world-renowned for the "Kagzi" characteristic—an ultra-thin skin that maximizes juice yield and provides an intense, refreshing acidity that thick-skinned varieties cannot match.
The R&B International Quality Commitment:
Hand-Picked Selection: Every lemon is hand-harvested at the precise stage of maturity. For international sea freight, we select the "Silver-Green" stage, which allows the fruit to develop a perfect bright yellow hue just as it arrives at the destination.
Waxing & Post-Harvest Care: To ensure a long shelf life, our lemons undergo a food-grade waxing process. This thin, invisible layer seals in moisture, preventing shriveling and maintaining that "just-picked" glossy appearance for weeks.
High Juice Yield: Our lemons are tested for juice density. Because of their thin rinds, R&B International lemons provide up to 15% more juice per kilogram compared to larger, thicker-skinned Mediterranean varieties.
Phytosanitary Compliance: We adhere to strict international standards regarding pesticide residues and fungal treatments. Every shipment is accompanied by a Phytosanitary Certificate, ensuring smooth clearance through global customs.
From the beverage industries of the Gulf to the gourmet kitchens of Europe, R&B International delivers the zesty essence and superior quality of the Indian Kagzi lemon.
Strategic Tip for R&B International:
The "Size vs. Weight" Factor: In the lemon trade, buyers often ask for "Count per Box" rather than just mm size. For example, a 6kg box might contain a 100-count or 120-count. Always confirm the Count vs. Box Weight with your buyer, as retail markets (supermarkets) prefer uniform counts for individual pricing, whereas juice factories care only about total weight and juice percentage.
