Our Dates And Grades


 

standards and specifications

 

 

Our Grading Protocol

A rigorous process that starts from the timing of the harvest to the manner by which the dates are handled, screened, cleaned, processed and packaged.  We harvest at the appropriate stage of maturity and we delicately handle our dates throughout the process.  We reject dates that are damaged or contaminated by insects and mites and we screen out defective fruits and those not compatible with the variety’s shape and color.  

Knowing that skin separation and breakage is inevitable; the resulting imperfections are evenly distributed and kept at a minimum. As a result, all our Premium Dates demonstrate skin that is clean and free from mechanical damage, fermentation and even blemishes.

 
 

Our New State of
The Art Processing Plant

 

In 2020, we sourced a new grading line from Green Technology and introduced a number of packaging options including a thermoforming unit from Colimatic. The grading unit enabled us to improve our processing quality and capacity and therefore enhance our quality assurance function.

The thermoforming unit has broadened the range of available packaging options. Our people along with our facilities (including cold stores) and processes enable us to properly grade our dates according to clear and transparent standards and, thus, enable us to deliver on our commitments..

 

 We can accommodate our commercial clients
in 3 main ways

We strive to ensure that every batch of dates you order meets the prescribed and agreed upon standards.
