Farms & Facilities

Two farms, one packing complex, and a single chain of custody between them. Every photograph on this page was taken on our own land.

Wadi El Natrun

North of Cairo, in a region known for fertile soil, a favourable climate, and optimal growing conditions. It is where we concentrate our citrus, combining generations of agricultural knowledge with modern science and technology.

  • Navel, Valencia and Baladi oranges; easy peelers; lemon
  • Efficient irrigation and resource conservation
  • Integrated pest management

  • Onions, garlic, potatoes, sweet potatoes, lettuce
  • Year-round rotation across all seasons
  • Farmed by the same family for more than a century

Graded, Packed and Sealed
Under One Roof

Fruit arrives from our own fields within hours of picking. Nothing is bought in, so a pallet can be traced back to the block it was grown on.

Packing Stations

Separate lines for citrus, grapes, alliums and dry goods, each with its own grading, weighing and packing configuration.
