Export-Quality Tomatoes Sourced from Trusted Farms
Consistency is the cornerstone of our export business. We cultivate long-standing grower partnerships across the Nashik and Pimpalgaon agricultural belts, ensuring every harvest meets stringent international quality, residue, and sizing standards.
200+ Contracted Farmer Clusters
Direct partnerships with progressive growers across Pimpalgaon, Dindori, and Niphad. Zero middlemen, ensuring complete batch traceability from field to container.
Morning Harvest (6 AM - 10 AM)
Tomatoes are hand-picked in the cool early morning hours to keep core pulp temperature low, minimizing moisture loss and physiological stress before packhouse arrival.
NABL MRL Residue Testing
Strict adherence to international Maximum Residue Limits (MRL). Every export batch is tested in APEDA-recognized NABL laboratories for 100% food safety assurance.
4-Stage Conveyor Sorting
Automated cleaning, roller grading by millimeter diameter, and manual culling of sunburns, blossom-end rot, and surface abrasions. Only flawless Grade A fruits are packed.
Export Ripeness & Harvesting Stages
We harvest strictly according to USDA & international color classifications. By matching fruit maturity to the specific destination transit window (Dubai sea vs. Bangladesh overland road), tomatoes arrive at destination markets with optimal firmness and uniform red coloration.
Stage 1: Mature Green
Harvested at physiological maturity with mature seed jelly. Maximum cellular strength designed for extended deep-sea freight routes where fruits ripen slowly under voyage control.
Stage 2: Breaker / Turning
The premier export benchmark. Arrives at Jebel Ali, Dhaka, and Kathmandu with vibrant crimson red color, firm bite, and maximum natural sweetness without softening.
Stage 3: Pink / Light Red
Selected for nearby maritime routes (Sri Lanka, Maldives) or domestic Tier-1 express cold-chain logistics. Immediate shelf appeal for hypermarkets and wholesale vendors.
Stage 4: Full Red Ripe
Fully mature with peak lycopene content, intense tomato aroma, and juicy pulp. Shipped via air cargo directly to 5-star hotels and luxury dining in Dubai and Gulf capitals.
Export Caliber & Diameter Classifications
Automated mechanical roller sizers sort fresh tomatoes by millimeter diameter and weight. This guarantees 100% uniformity per box to satisfy retail and food-service quality audits in Dubai, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Southeast Asia.
Small / Catering Grade
Uniform compact diameter, dense internal locules, and thick skin. Highly demanded for catering and commercial food prep.
Standard Export Grade A
The universal benchmark for commercial export. Uniform spherical/oval shape, smooth glossy rind, balanced acidity, and zero micro-cracking.
Large Select Grade A+
Hand-graded large fruits with thick pericarp walls and high meat-to-gel ratio. Excellent table presentation for retail display cases.
Jumbo Salad Grade
Extra-large jumbo size engineered for high-yield slicing. High solids content ensures clean cuts without excessive water dripping.
Export Hybrid Varieties Cultivated on Trusted Farms
We contract-grow specific global hybrid varieties known for high total soluble solids (TSS), thick rind membranes, deep red internal arils, and superior transportability.
Abhinav (Syngenta)
Semi-Determinate HybridSquare-round shape, very thick fruit walls, uniform deep red, exceptional transit durability across mountain and sea routes.
US 440 (Nunhems)
Determinate Bush HybridFlat-round globe, rich lycopene red color, dense internal chambers, high firmness preventing transit crush.
Saaho (3251)
Semi-DeterminateAttractive firm calyx, excellent firmness retention under reefer transit, blemish-free skin.
Vaishnavi & Aryan
High-Yield HybridHeat tolerant, uniform size distribution, thick outer cuticle resistant to transit friction.
Export Crates, Cartons & Private Labeling
Because tomatoes are tender fruits, our packaging engineering focuses on zero compressive load on fruit skin and continuous airflow dissipation to preserve freshness across road and sea routes.
Perforated Plastic Crates
Food-grade HDPE ventilated crates with interlocking structural ribs. Ideal for Dubai ocean reefers and Bangladesh / Nepal road transport.
Corrugated CFB Cartons
Telescopic boxes with multi-directional ventilation eyelets, food-safe paper dividers, and moisture-resistant internal wax coating.
Retail Clamshell Punnets
Pre-packed transparent clamshell punnets with private label barcode stickers for direct retail hypermarket shelving in GCC countries.
Palletized Reefer Stuffing
Pre-palletized crates secured with heavy-duty corner boards and breathable strapping for rapid, damage-free forklift port handling.
Container Microclimate Control
Tomatoes require precise thermal management. Unlike onions or potatoes, temperatures below +10°C cause irreversible chilling injury, pitting, and off-flavors.
Fast Ocean, Road & Air Transit Times
Our facilities sit on the Mumbai-Agra National Highway corridor, allowing quick 4-hour transfers to JNPT port terminals and direct access to overland freight corridors for Bangladesh and Nepal.

Frequently Asked B2B Tomato Export Questions
Q:How do you ensure export-quality tomatoes are sourced only from trusted farms?
Our procurement model is built on direct tie-ups with 200+ registered farmer clusters in the Pimpalgaon Baswant, Dindori, and Nashik belts. We deploy in-house agricultural supervisors who oversee seed selection (Abhinav, US 440), drip irrigation, and zero-residue pest management. Harvesting takes place exclusively in the cool morning hours (6:00 AM - 10:00 AM) to maintain low core temperature. At our packhouse, fruits undergo 4-tier sorting and roller grading to remove all blemishes and ensure only 100% Grade A tomatoes reach export containers.
Q:What is your procedure and schedule for exporting tomatoes to Dubai (UAE)?
For Dubai, cargo is pre-cooled at our packhouse, packed in heavy-duty 10kg/14kg ventilated plastic crates or 5kg CFB boxes, and loaded into 40ft High Cube reefer containers set to +10°C to +12°C with 85-90% RH. Containers depart from JNPT Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) and dock at Jebel Ali Port within 4 to 6 days. For urgent hypermarket or 5-star hotel requirements, express air cargo pallets fly out of Mumbai (BOM) to Dubai (DXB) within 24 to 48 hours.
Q:How do you handle fresh tomato exports to Bangladesh?
We operate dedicated cross-border road logistics from Nashik to Bangladesh. Trucks loaded with 14kg/15kg heavy plastic crates transit via National Highway corridors directly to Land Customs Stations (LCS) including Petrapole - Benapole, Ghojadanga, and Hili check-posts within 2 to 3 days. Tomatoes are picked at the Turning/Breaker stage so they clear border customs and reach Dhaka and Chittagong wholesale mandis in fresh, firm, and undamaged condition.
Q:How are tomatoes transported overland to Nepal?
For Nepal, shipments travel overland from our Pimpalgaon sorting centers through the Raxaul - Birgunj border and Sonauli - Bhairahawa border checkpoints. Total transit time is approximately 2 to 3 days to Kathmandu's Kalimati Fruit & Vegetable Market and Pokhara. We specifically select thick-walled hybrid varieties (Abhinav and US 440) that resist compression and vibration over hilly roads.
Q:How do you prevent chilling injury and skin decay during refrigerated transport?
Tomatoes are sensitive to cold shock. Exposure to temperatures below +10°C causes chilling injury, surface pitting, and failure to ripen evenly. We maintain refrigerated reefer containers strictly at +10°C to +12°C with 85% to 90% Relative Humidity. Our technicians configure continuous air exchanges (15-20 CBM/hr) to actively vent ethylene gas and prevent moisture condensation inside the container.
