Hill orchards

Where our apples come from

Apples are not grown in Andhra Pradesh. We source from India's recognised apple-growing regions — Himachal Pradesh (including the Shimla and Kinnaur belts) and Jammu & Kashmir — through trusted grower and packhouse partners. Our commercial base is in Andhra Pradesh: we act as your export counterpart for enquiry, documentation and programme coordination.

    Shimla & Kinnaur belts

    Recognised hill orchards — packhouse partners for graded fruit.

  • Jammu & Kashmir

    Kashmir apple belt

    Trusted grower and packhouse network for export programmes.

Season & lot

Varieties we can supply

Variety availability follows season and lot. We supply Shimla and Kinnaur apples — trusted regional lines from Himachal Pradesh's premium growing belts — along with Richared, a mid-season Delicious-family variety grown across Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir. We do not treat "Indian apple" as one interchangeable SKU. Tell us the variety mix, colour preference and size grades your buyers expect, and we will match available lots or say clearly when we cannot.

  • Shimla

    Himachal belt

    Trusted regional line from premium growing districts.

  • Kinnaur

    Himachal belt

    High-altitude orchards known for colour and firmness.

  • Richared

    Delicious family

    Mid-season variety across Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir.

Fresh produce logistics

Grades, packing & cold chain

Apples are fresh produce. Export programmes depend on grade, sizing, packing discipline and unbroken temperature control — not shelf-stable dry packing. Shipping is arranged via reefer container by sea freight, with temperature control maintained from pre-cooling through transit. Typical discussion points: grade/class on enquiry, size/count on enquiry, packing on enquiry, private label marking on request, minimum order on enquiry, commercial basis on enquiry (pricing on enquiry), lead time on enquiry, harvest/availability window on enquiry. Lot parameters (firmness, colour, defects) are confirmed before booking against your destination's requirements.
