        Types of Watermelon

        There are four watermelon classes: seedless, picnic, icebox, and yellow/orange. The types of watermelons shouldn’t be mistaken for varieties:

        • Seedless Watermelons: They were created in the 1990s, and the main aim was to get rid of the seeds while retaining freshness and taste.  This type of watermelon requires different farming attention but is still grown in Kenya.
        • Picnic Watermelons: This type of watermelon is known for being large and fit for a picnic gathering. 
        • Icebox Watermelons: This type of watermelon is small and was first introduced in the 1950s. They are best for small families.
        • Yellow/ Orange Watermelons: This classification of watermelons has yellow or orange-coloured flesh. In addition, they can be seeded or seedless.

        Irrespective of the type of watermelon you want to export, FrutPlanet can help. We source from small-scale farmers in Kenya, package, and deliver to you, covering all the logistics. Order watermelons for sale from FrutPlanet by requesting a quote today.

We handle bulk watermelon orders for our international clients by sourcing, sorting, packaging, and delivering. We will take care of all the logistics until the bulk watermelon for sale is delivered. How do we inspect the watermelon? 

        The most conspicuous feature to observe is the watermelon shell. A ripe watermelon should have a thick rind. But how do you inspect a watermelon? Our team thumps or pressures the watermelon shell with the hands to check if it’s ripe. A ripe watermelon is hard and produces a deep solid sound. Overripe melons have a soft shell and hollow sound because the fibre attaching the fresh has relaxed. Our other selection factors include inspecting the watermelon’s shape and weight.

Cross border method involves having a large fibreboard divided into compartments for individual ripe watermelons. Stacking involves putting the ripe watermelons in one big carton together. 

        Our watermelon export packing methods withstands rough handling, compression, vibration, and temperature shifts during transit. We transport the fruits via air to ensure delivery is within 2 to 4 days after packaging.

        • Farm-Fresh Avocado Fruits Sold By: FrutPlanet

          FrutPlanet is a leading exporter of fruits, vegetables, spices, and beverages that commits to customer satisfaction. Amongst FrutPlanet’s leading exports is the Avocado fruit

          Varieties: There are over 500 Avocado fruit varieties, but only about ten varieties are grown commercially worldwide. The most popular commercial variety is the Hass avocado. This variety accounts for about 95% of our total avocado exports. Other avocado varieties that FrutPlanet exports include Hass, Tonnage, Fuerte, Simmonds, Smooth 8, and Pinkerton. Irrespective of the avocado variety you’re looking to export, we have a wide database of farmers and can help you source it. Request a quote or contact us via email. 

          Size:  Avocado varieties have varying sizes, which is crucial during their packaging. Usually, we name the sizes depending on the number of avocados needed to fill a 25-pound carton. The sizes range from 24 to 84. For example, if an avocado is size 24, you will need 24 Avocados to fill the 25 pounds carton. Generally, our sizing guide illustrates that the larger the designated number, the smaller the size of the avocado. At FrutPlanet exporters, we handle the inspection of the packaging process to ensure that you get the exact size you order.  

          Colour:  A raw mature avocado is commonly green, although the colour may vary depending on the variety of the avocado. When the avocado ripens, its colour changes from green to black, although some varieties may remain green. FrutPlanet exports raw mature avocados that are green. We have a team of experts who work with farmers to ensure that the avocado is mature for the absolute satisfaction of our customers.

        • Fresh Strawberry Fruit Sold By: FrutPlanet

          FrutPlanet is a leading strawberry exporter and supplier to different global markets. You can request a quote and enjoy our guaranteed customer satisfaction.

          Colour: Unripe Strawberry fruit is green-white but turns red on ripening. The green pigment results from chlorophyll in their skin, while redness is caused by anthocyanin. Also, some strawberry fruits have a pink colouring. FrutPlanet can help you source and export strawberries from anywhere.

          Shape and Size: The size and shape of strawberry fruits vary widely depending on the variety. Some have an oblate, rounded shape with a slightly flattened top and bottom. The most prevalent shape of the strawberry fruit is a long conic shape. A typical strawberry measures about 0.9 – 1.5 cm and weighs about 7 to 27 grams. The size measurements are greatly influenced by the minerals available and the environment the plant grows in. Here at FrutPlanet exporters, we prioritise your specification above anything. We’re the best strawberry exporter for your orders, whether you want small, medium, or large berries. 

          Organic: Unfortunately, most strawberry farmers use a lot of pesticides, some of which cannot be eroded by just washing the berries. And although you may not notice the taste difference, organic berries are more refreshing. Usually, organic berries ripen from inside towards the skin so that when you cut them, the skin and the flesh will be red. At FrutPlanet, we only source and export organically grown strawberry fruits. We source from strawberry farms that are committed to our campaign against the use of pesticides in farming.

          Fresh: Larger berries have more fresh but less tasty juice than smaller berries. Naturally, larger berries have more water which ends up saturating the juice. Therefore, the smaller berries end up being juicier and sweeter. As a leading strawberry exporter, we follow your specifications to the letter, whether you want a small or large strawberry.
