Pinghe County in Fujian is China's largest pomelo growing and export base, shipping around 200,000 metric tons overseas each year to more than 50 countries and regions. Huasheng Fruits & Vegetables supplies fresh Chinese pomelos with firm flesh and high sugar, packed for safe long-distance cold-chain delivery.

Why import Pomelos from China?

Chinese pomelos, botanically Citrus maxima, have been cultivated in Pinghe for more than 500 years, building an export system with around 200,000 tons shipped abroad annually. This mature base lets exporters fill containers with uniform, well-adapted fruit rather than inconsistent spot supply.

In 2025 the first Chinese pomelos entered the southern hemisphere when 18.7 tons of Pinghe honey pomelo passed customs inspection and shipped to New Zealand; on a single August day 564 tons left Pinghe for overseas markets. The northern-hemisphere harvest also slots neatly against the southern spring fruit gap, an advantage that helped open new markets.

With sales across the EU, North America, the Middle East and Asia, Chinese pomelo logistics, phytosanitary handling and port routes are already proven at scale.

What quality and grading standards does Huasheng apply?

Pomelos are graded by weight, diameter, rind condition and sugar content, keeping fruit uniform so an order arrives with consistent size and sweetness. Honey pomelo from Pinghe typically reaches sugar levels above 11 degrees, supported by the region's rainfall and growing conditions.

Grading removes fruit with blemished rind, soft spots or browning, and every export lot is checked to meet the packing and phytosanitary requirements of the destination market. This discipline protects shelf life across long transit routes.

How are Pomelos packed and shipped for export?

Each pomelo is wrapped in a protective net mesh and packed into sturdy corrugated cartons so the heavy fruit does not shift or bruise during stacking and handling. The packing house follows approved orchard and packing-facility registration, with records kept for traceability.

Cartons are pre-cooled and shipped in temperature-managed containers to hold freshness across long sea routes. Carton and label markings can be tailored to destination-market regulations.

Can I customise packing and order size?

Standard packs include single-fruit cartons, 2-pack and 4-pack consumer cartons, or bulk export cartons by weight grade. Order size can start from a trial container and scale with confirmed quality.

Custom carton printing, size mixes and destination-specific labelling are available. Early booking before the autumn harvest peak helps secure the best-graded lots and firm ocean rates.
