ABOUT US Global Fresh Produce SA De CV Is a Relatively Young Company That Has Its Beginnings in the Downtown Area of Veracruz An ABOUT US Global Fresh Produce SA de CV is a relatively young company that has its beginnings in the downtown area of Veracruz and since its foundation aims to export agricultural quality products, initially was intended to market various products, however we felt it was better to specialize 100% in a single product to fully meet the requirements of our customers. Today we are dedicated only to export Persian Lime seedless. Our offices are located in the city of Cordoba, Veracruz and the packing in the municipality of Cuitlahuac, Veracruz, both in the central state of Veracruz, México. One of the main objectives in 2016 is to obtain the PRIMUS GFS certification of the baler, to comply with the changes, "law of modernization of food safety" from the Food and Drug Administration of the United States of North America, "FDA" we are now already in the process of certification. The baler has machinery for the packing process is fully stainless steel mesh anti-aphids, delimited areas and everything necessary to meet the relevant standards. We currently export to the United States, mainly in border areas, where our customers embark later to cities further north such as Chicago, New York, Boston, among others. Make a difference in everything we do is thanks to the passion for winning and creating gaps with our competitors regarding discipline, speed and flawless execution.

OUR VALUES • Discipline • Honesty • Integrity • Loyalty •Passion OUR PRODUCTS PERSIAN LIME Scientific name: Citrus latifolia. Common names: Tahiti lime, Persian lime, Bearss lime. Production: from August to September (high season). November-December; March-April. Existing varieties: Tahiti, Bearss, Hawaii, oil and smooth Cayenne. Citrus × latifolia, Persian lime, also known as Tahitian lime, Mexican lime, Persian lime, lemon mesina, seedless lemon or lime Bearss was named in honor of John T. Bearss, who developed this variety seedless around 1895 in a nursery Porterville, California). It is a fruit that in many markets such as the United States is simply sold under the name of lime. The fruit is about 6 cm in diameter, often with slightly pointed ends, usually sold in green, but when it reaches full maturity is yellow. It is larger, with thicker skin and less aromatic acid lime (key lime), which is cultivated all around the world. The advantages of this lime respect to acid is that it is larger, has no seeds, increased strength, absence of spines on the trees, and longer fruit once collected. They are less acidic than the acidic lime and does not have the bitterness of acid lime and masking their other flavors. DESCRIPTION The Persian lemon is one of Mexico's main exports. It is a variety of seedless lemon, lime close relative. Fresh juice is used for seasoning various dishes. It is widely used in the preparation of meat and seafood, in the preparation of cold drinks, as alcohol mixture, in the manufacture of cakes, jams, jellies, ice cream, as well as food preservation. Peel essential oil and pulp used to feed livestock is removed. The oil is used in the cosmetics industry. It also has many medicinal properties. VARIETY SEEDLESS The lemon tree is vigorous, upright habit, with purple sprouting that later turn green. The fruit is oval or globe, with a slightly depressed apex. Persian limes are crowned by a short nipple- shaped scar. The pulp is of color between green and yellow, seedless. It is juicy, sour and fragrant. The shell is green with heavy or light, thin shades, easily broken and has a bitter taste. Persian lemons weigh, on average, 76 grams. The tree needs temperatures between 22 and 28 ° C for good development. It requires rains in 1200 two thousand millimeters per year, and if watered frequently, constantly grow and bear flowers. It grows in land with an altitude of two hundred to nine hundred meters above sea level. The best crops are grown in loam, sandy loam and deep, with good moisture. The Tahiti limes are harvested from 8 to 12 times a year, once a month in the winter, but 70% of the mature crop from May to autumn. The production peak is from July to September. Market demand persists throughout the year and off-season fruits are sold at higher prices. Most of the harvesting is done by hand. If harvested too immature, the fruits will be little juicy. If left too long on the tree, the fruit may develop what in English is known as "stylar-end-breakdown" and also may turn yellow before reaching distant markets. Lemons are collected in plastic boxes in the field and taken by truck to the packing plants where they are sorted, washed, waxed and packed in corrugated cardboard boxes 10, 20, 40, or even 55 pounds (4.5, 9, 18, or 25-kg). Once in the packing, they are selected from according their quality; Limes must be: • Stamped • Fresh look • Clean • Healthy inside and out • Well developed (according to the size set out in this specification) • firm consistency • uniform texture • In shape, flavor and characteristic odor • Practically free from bruises and cracks • Free of any foreign smell and / or taste • Exempt visible foreign matter (dirt, stains or waste organic matter) • Exempt pest Colour The color is dark green .

  • TAHITIAN LIME(Persian
    TAHITIAN LIME (Persian Lime) Limes have many uses, including jams, jellies, marmalade and garnishing fish and other main dishes. The fruit is sold commercially as fresh fruit and also for processing although the Tahitian lime is preferred as fresh fruit because it is considered unsuitable for lime cordial products. The name “Tahitian” was given to the lime when the fruit was introduced from Tahiti to California. However, with the introduction of this variety into Australia in 1824 (possibly from Brazil) the fruit was then more commonly called the Persian lime. DESCRIPTION Large sized lime, generally 5 - 7 cm long and 4 - 6 cm in diameter. Colour of the fruit is green and pale lemon/yellow at maturity. The fruit has a distinct lime flavour and a moderate to high acidic level. The flesh at maturity is green and pulpy. Sold mainly as fresh fruit, Tahitian limes rarely have seeds and are excellent for growing in many areas of Australia. PRODUCTION OF LIME TREES Main crop harvest will vary with seasonal conditions and districts. January to March on the far North Coast areas. February to March on the Central Coast. April to July in cooler districts. The trees have little thorns and are moderately vigorous, growing from 2 to 4 metres high. Size depends on soil and rootstocks. Lime trees have the highest heat requirements of all citrus fruits and therefore grown in tropical or sub-tropical areas where better fruit quality is obtained. The trees grow continuously and are sensitive to cold. The Tahitian lime is slightly more cold resistant than other varieties, however frosts can damage both foliage and fruit.

  • About Limes by George Geary CCP
    All About Limes By George Geary CCP Lime History In the eighteenth century, Scottish naval surgeon Sir James Lind learned by his observation of long-haul sailors that citrus fruits conquered the dreaded scurvy (lack of Vitamin C) which had divested the ranks of the British navy more than any enemy. Between 1795 and 1815, some 1.6 million gallons of lime Juice drastically reduced the mortality rate of seamen. Along with their daily ration of rum, British sailors were required to consume a daily ration of lime Juice; hence British seamen became known as limeys. Since Britain was often at war with Mediterranean countries that exported lemons, limes imported cheaply from the English colony of Jamaica were substituted as the citrus of choice. Key Lime (also known as Mexican Lime and West Indies Lime) Cultivated for thousands of years in the Indo-Malayan region, this variety has long been treasured for its fruit and decorative foliage. The Key lime made its way to North Africa and the Near East via Arabian traders, and then carried on to Palestine and Mediterranean Europe by the Crusaders. Columbus is credited with bringing the Key lime to Haiti, where Spanish settlers to Florida carried it on. It flourished in South Florida, particularly the Florida Keys, hence the current common name of Key lime. Due to hurricane-depleted soils, locals switched from pineapple commercial crops to limes in 1906, and business boomed until a hurricane once again reared and wiped out the lime groves, never to be restored. Today, most Key limes come from Mexico.

  • CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2017-2018
    CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2017-2018 Citrus Nurseries affected by Hurricane Irma, September 2017 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Our Vision The Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration will be diligent in providing high yielding, pathogen tested, quality budlines that will positively impact the productivity and prosperity of our citrus industry. Our Mission The Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration administers a program to assist growers and nurserymen in producing citrus nursery trees that are believed to be horticulturally true to varietal type, productive, and free from certain recognizable bud-transmissible diseases detrimental to fruit production and tree longevity. Annual Report 2018 July 1, 2017 – June 30, 2018 Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration Ben Rosson, Chief This is the 64th year of the Citrus Budwood Registration Program which began in Florida in 1953. Citrus budwood registration and certification programs are vital to having a healthy commercial citrus industry. Clean stock emerging from certification programs is the best way to avoid costly disease catastrophes in young plantings and their spread to older groves. Certification programs also restrict or prevent pathogens from quickly spreading within growing areas. Regulatory endeavors have better prospects of containing or eradicating new disease outbreaks if certification programs are in place to control germplasm movement. Budwood registration has the added benefit in allowing true-to-type budlines to be propagated. The selection of high quality cultivars for clonal propagation gives growers uniform plantings of high quality trees. The original mother stock selected for inclusion in the Florida budwood program is horticulturally evaluated for superior performance, either by researchers, growers or bureau staff.

  • Mexican Lime
    MEXICAN LIME Commercial citrus production in the Yuma area is devoted primarily to tangelo/tangerines, a distant second to desert lemons, the major citrus fruit grown in the area. Mexican limes, however, fit into a local niche market, with the small acreage grown essentially for local markets. · Of the two acid, or sour, limes in world trade, the one longest known and most widely cultivated is the Mexican lime (Citrus aurantifoli), and many often refer the tangy fruit merely as "lime". · The Mexican lime tree is exceptionally vigorous; may be shrubby and range from 6 1/2 to 13 feet high, with many slender, spreading branches, and usually with numerous, very sharp spines to 3/8 inch long. The lime fruits are borne singly or in 2's or 3's (or sometimes large clusters), at the twig tips. The pulp of the Mexican lime is greenish-yellow and the fruits are quite juicy, very acid and flavorful, with few or many small seeds which are also green in color. · The Mexican lime, because of its special bouquet and unique flavor, is ideal for serving in half as a garnish and flavoring for fish and meats, for adding zest to cold drinks, and for making limeade. Commercially bottled lime juice is prized the world over for use in mixed alcoholic drinks. · Limes are a very juicy citrus fruit. In fact, it is calculated that 2,200 lbs of fruit yields 1,058 pounds of juice. · Mexican limes are often made into jam, jelly and marmalade. They are also pickled by first making 4 incisions at the top of the fruit and covering the fruits with salt, and later preserv- ing them in vinegar.
