Turkish minneola season ramps up

Turkish fresh produce export company Eren Tarim, established in 1993, are right in the middle of a successful minneola season. The holiday season, especially the month of December, is the busiest time of the year and Aysel Oguz from Eren Tarim said that the season has already exceeded the company's expectations.

Eren exports minneolas to different parts of the world. Also known as a tangelo, this pear shaped variety has very good skin, pulp coloration, along with a wonderful aroma. A hybrid between a mandarin and a grapefruit, the flavour is not too sweet (about 11-13 brix grade) and can even be a bit sour at times. It is said that this mandarin contains high percentage of folic acid which covers about 80% of human needs.

Minneola mandarins are grown in Florida, Turkey and Israel, although Turkish products have always been desirable to customers due to good logistic solutions and the fact that everything is done accordingly to the customer’s demand for quality. It can be shipped for long and short transit times. Along with that, Eren offers different packaging solutions to its customers.

In addition to minneola's, Eren also offers the mandarin nova, which is a hybrid between the clementine and tangelo. This is also one of the strongest mandarin varieties that can withstand a long transit. It has very bright orange color and a strong aroma.

The current season is expected to last until the end of January.
