Why this lane works for fresh fruits
Italy buyers on this line are typically ethnic wholesalers, importers and re-distributors, halal retail groups, foodservice suppliers. On the air route the consignment is 12-18 hours from Dhaka, which for a product with a shelf life of 10 to 21 days depending on the line leaves ample selling time on arrival. Supply runs year round, so a standing weekly or fortnightly booking is straightforward to hold.
Full grading, packing and variety detail is on the Fresh fruits product page; the entry rules and document set for every line into this country are on the Italy market page.
