Handpicked fresh-ripen lemons. We transport the lemons to our central processing facility to undergo processing steps. These steps include washing using clean water, separating the peel from the fruit in which sharp knives are used by hand, quick sun drying is done on concrete floors to a maximum of 12% moisture content. The dried peels are sorted to separate damaged peels or low-quality peels.
We monitor each processing step for each lot to ensure set quality operating standards are met.
Packaging is 25kg in a food grade polypropylene bag certified by the Tanzania Bureau Standards.
