Dates Tunisia
According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Hydraulic Resources and Fishing, the Tunisian date harvest will surpass all previous records, with a better-quality production.
In addition, at the export level, Tunisia Dates aims to integrate more than 80 countries in total, mainly Morocco and the EU, which remain the first customers of Tunisia Dates by buying almost a quarter of exports.
Spain is the second largest customer for Tunisia Dates, followed by other countries such as Canada, Singapore… with a demand that increases year after year, given the particularly exceptional quality of Tunisian dates. This makes it exceptional compared to other dates of other origins.
Moreover, it is in the South of Tunisia that the oases abound with fabulous palm trees of many years of history. This heritage explains the peculiarity of Dates Tunisia which are the result of a unique agreement between the agronomic genius of man on the one hand and the natural resources in a dry environment on the other. In this singular and arid ecosystem, water remains the keystone, determining the quality of Tunisian dates.
Also, packaging plays a very important role in the quality of dates Tunisia, and this by the sorting, selection and processing of dates Tunisia. This repeated control at all stages of the process offers importers a real added value in terms of the specifications of dates Tunisia.
Opportunities for dates Tunisia are numerous:
The European Union is in demand for quality dates respecting the food safety regulations to which Tunisian dates in particular respond.
European tourists visiting Tunisia are as spokespersons inclined to proselytize for dates Tunisia.
Tunisian dates occupy a good position among the dates in the world in terms of value and quantity. However, we are the first exporter of dates compared to the volume produced. In addition, today there are niches for high-end dates including filled dates, chocolate dates, date balls and finally organic Tunisia dates.
These organic Tunisia dates come from organic and biodynamic oases in the region Tozeur, in south-western Tunisia. The most widespread variety of these Tunisia dates is undoubtedly that of the famous Deglet Noor. It is in this sunny desert kingdom that the Tunisian dates become the queens of the super fruits so prized by consumers. To produce succulent Tunisia Dates, date palms ripen peacefully in the sun.
