Seedless Lemon (Lime)

Vietnamese seedless limes from Long An province are prized for: 100% seedless fruit (no seeds to remove), exceptionally high juice content (40-45% of fruit weight), thin skin maximizing juice yield, intense citrus aroma, and consistent year-round availability. These characteristics make them ideal for cocktail bars, restaurants, and high-volume juice production in the HORECA sector.

We grade limes by count per kilogram: 8-14, 12-18 or 18-22 fruits per kg, with diameters from 40 to 60mm. Larger fruit (fewer per kg) is preferred for restaurant garnishes and individual use, and smaller fruit is economical for juice extraction. We can supply single-grade containers or mixed sizes based on your end-use requirements.

Vietnamese seedless limes have excellent storage life. At 9-10°C with 85-90% humidity, limes maintain quality for up to 4 weeks post-arrival. For extended storage, we apply food-grade wax coating that extends refrigerated life to 6-8 weeks while maintaining the bright green color preferred in GCC markets.

A 40ft Reefer container holds approximately 25-27 metric tons of limes. Standard packaging is 4.5kg or 5kg cartons. For premium retail, we offer 500g and 1kg net bags. All packaging ensures adequate ventilation to prevent moisture buildup and mold development.

During the main crop. Long An's limes come from two crops a year: the main crop in the rainy season, with the largest volumes from about June to October, when prices are lowest, and a smaller dry-season crop from about December to May, which sells for 35 to 45 percent more, according to a Van Hien University study of the Long An lime trade. Prices are usually highest from January to mid-June.
