Import Fresh Cherries — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in South Africa

Fresh Cherries offered by Foshan Mafrika Stock And Supplies are cultivated on their own orchards in South Africa and belong to the Napoleon variety, known for large, heart‑shaped fruit with a claret colour. The average fruit length is 2.4 cm, the maximum reaches 2.65 cm, the average weight is about 10 g and the diameter measures roughly 15 mm. The harvest period runs from April to June, while the broader fresh season extends from April to December, providing a long window for supply.

In the cherry trade, typical standards call for a firm pulp, short stem and a moisture content of 80‑85 %. The product is normally stored at - 1 °C to 3 °C in reefer containers to preserve juiciness and colour. Common packaging includes individual white‑plastic bags placed in cartons of 4.5 kg, 9 kg, 10 kg, 15 kg or 18 kg, and bulk shipments can be loaded at 2 200 cartons per 40‑foot reefer container. These practices align with industry expectations for premium fresh cherries.

Buyers such as supermarkets, food‑service distributors and confectionery manufacturers value the large size and sweet flavour of these cherries for fresh consumption, desserts and bakery fillings.
