Pomegranate

India is a leading producer and exporter of premium pomegranates, with the Bhagwa variety from Maharashtra internationally acclaimed for its deep red arils, high juice content, sweet-tart flavour, and long shelf life. Indian pomegranates command strong demand in the Middle East, Europe, Southeast Asia, and global supermarket chains due to their exceptional fruit quality and consistent supply across extended seasons.

Geodhara International exports fresh, export-grade pomegranates sourced through our supplier network from the leading pomegranate-growing regions of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka. Available primarily in the Bhagwa and Arakta varieties, our pomegranates are harvested at peak maturity, graded by weight and colour, packed in single-layer ventilated cartons, and cold-stored to maintain freshness through international transit.

We are equipped to supply trade buyers, supermarket chains, fruit wholesalers, juice manufacturers, and distributors in Bangladesh, the UAE, Nepal, Malaysia, and Singapore, with consistent supply, competitive pricing, and phytosanitary-compliant export documentation.

FAQs

What pomegranate varieties do you export?

We export Bhagwa (also called Kesar), Arakta and Ganesh. Bhagwa is the variety most export buyers specify, for its deep red skin, soft seeds and high juice content.

What is the shelf life of exported pomegranates?

Held at 5 to 7 degrees C under an unbroken cold chain, Indian pomegranates carry 8 to 12 weeks from harvest, which is what makes them workable on long sea routes.

How are pomegranates packed for export?

Pomegranates are packed in 3.5 kg or 5 kg single layer ventilated cartons with moulded trays. Reefers are held at 5 to 7 degrees C at 90% to 95% relative humidity.

What is the pomegranate export season from India?

The main export crop is Mrig bahar, harvested October to February. Hasta and Ambe bahar extend supply across much of the year, so we can usually cover a programme outside the peak.

What export certifications do you provide?

We provide phytosanitary certificates, certificates of origin, lab test reports and complete shipping documentation for every consignment. Where your programme requires GlobalG.A.P., we can nominate certified source farms.
