Citrus is a year-round category built from alternating hemispheres. Northern-hemisphere origins — Spain, Morocco, Egypt, Turkey and the United States — supply from autumn through spring. Southern-hemisphere origins — South Africa, Chile, Peru and Argentina — cover the counter-season from autumn to spring in the south.
We have access to all of these origins and the citrus each one produces, so a program can move between them as seasons change instead of depending on a single source. For each program we look at variety, calibre, brix and acidity, packing format and the phytosanitary requirements of the destination market.
