Dubai’s High Demand for Premium Mandarins
Best Practices for Storing Fresh Mandarin in Dubai
Fresh mandarins stay longer when kept at a cool temperature. Avoid direct sunlight and hot areas. Ideal storage is between 4°C and 10°C. This slows ripening and prevents decay.
Use Proper Ventilation
Mandarins need air circulation to prevent moisture build-up and mold. Avoid sealing them in plastic bags without ventilation. Use mesh or perforated containers.
Separate Damaged Fruits
Check mandarins daily and remove any bruised or overripe fruits. One spoiled mandarin can affect others. Keeping them separate improves shelf life.
Use Cold Storage for Bulk Supply
For wholesale or commercial supply, cold storage is essential. Temperatures around 4°C keep mandarins fresh for weeks. Cold rooms also reduce decay and maintain taste and aroma.
Rotate Stock Regularly
Apply first-in, first-out (FIFO) practice. Sell or use older mandarins first to avoid spoilage. Regular rotation ensures fresh stock in Dubai markets.
