Egyptian Flame Seedless grapes — the first grapes of the Uzbek season.
Why this page exists

Required FAQs
- Q: Why should Uzbek buyers import Egyptian grapes when Uzbekistan has its own grape crop? A: Egyptian grape season (May–Jul) is 2–3 months earlier than the Uzbek domestic crop (Aug–Oct). Early-season imported grape covers the spring gap for premium retail and HORECA.
- Q: What SO₂ protocol do you use? A: Dual-release SO₂ pad in every carton, ISO-compliant, with pre-shipment fumigation record included in documentation.
