Wholesale companies are going online to sell fresh dates, and Mazafati has become one of the most popular types of dates these days.
Mazafati dates, also called Bam dates, have different names because they are famous globally, and different countries cultivate them in various areas.
Since many companies produce these dates with different qualities, in some regions, people started to know them by the company’s brand name.
For example, we can find Mazafati dates with the name Kimia or Maryam dates or even Crown dates.
This happens when a company always sells high-quality products and becomes famous among the customers.
Most date fruits are dry, and they do not need low temperature as a storage condition.
Many wholesalers are more interested in dealing with dry fruit because they require less money and energy, but they are not aware of the big market they have in different parts of the world.
Since the Mazafati dates have high levels of moisture, they can’t be grouped as dried fruits.
They need special storage conditions which are between 5 to +5 degrees Celsius.
Fresh 5KG Dates
Mazafati dates have different types of packaging.
Fresh dates are usually packed in 700 grams boxes, then packed in 5kg or 10kg boxes.
Usually, the weight of each package of Mazafati dates exceeds 10 kilograms due to its high amounts of syrup.
The high-quality Mazafati dates are larger and are about 2.5 to 4.5cm each.
So traditionally, each 700-gram carton box can hold up to 16 dates.
They are first wrapped in a small plastic bag to be protected from the dirt and other polluters and then put in small rectangular boxes to be protected from being damaged.
Then the small boxes are arranged into the master boxes to be ready for exportation.
Day after day, with many new companies entering the dry fruits business, the old traditional packaging style was no longer satisfying the customers.
Companies started to have many new rivals, so they needed to figure out new methods of packaging for their products in order to be appealing to people.
To regain the date market, fruits were less packed in the old traditional carton boxes.
