Wholesale marketing of green fresh garbanzo pods, also called “guasanas”, is a new product in the world, launched globally in 2003. Since then, we saw its great potential and, in 2004, we started, producing, packing and marketing our green fresh garbanzo pods in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Before harvest process begins, we select the best batch of chickpeas, taking into account factors such as uniformity in size of pods and optimal ripeness; we separate pods from the plant using a very docile process, developed by our engineering staff, which provides a highly cost efficient harvest and at the same time preserves the integrity of peas and pods, which helps to better improve shelf life, appreciated by our customers.
Thus, it goes through our packaging line, where it is hand picked selected, to provide the best quality market demands to be packaged in ventilated plastic boxes with 15 pounds of weight at a temperature of 35 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal transport.
We deliver orders from 64 boxes (one pallet) to 24 pallet truck loads, delivered anywhere in the United States, Canada or Mexico.
Please contact us and we will be glad to assist you.
