Fruits Quality Inspection
Fruits Quality Inspection
When fresh fruit arrives at the market from suppliers, it doesn’t always meet the expected quality standards. This can occur due to mishandling during transportation or a lack of proper quality control at the producer level before shipment. As a result, it is essential for both shippers and receivers to hire an independent surveyor to assess the fruit's quality and investigate any causes of deterioration.

What We Inspect
Our inspection process is thorough and based on representative sampling. The criteria for sampling include the grower’s specifications, pack date, size indications, and fruit varieties. Using specialized measuring equipment, we inspect each sample (typically a box of fruit) to evaluate the following:
External Quality: Assessing the visual appearance of the fruit, including skin condition, color, and presence of blemishes.
Internal Quality: Checking the internal condition, such as ripeness, texture, and the presence of any internal damage.
Net Weight per Box: Verifying the weight of the product to ensure consistency and compliance with agreed specifications.
Product Temperature: Measuring the temperature of the fruit to ensure it is stored and transported within optimal conditions.
Sugar Content: For products like grapes, mandarins, and oranges, we measure the sugar content to ensure the expected sweetness and ripeness.
Firmness: For fruits like mangoes, apples, pears, and plums, we assess the firmness to determine maturity and shelf life potential.
Shelf Life Expectancy: Estimating the fruit’s expected shelf life, considering factors such as ripeness and overall quality.
