What to look for when sourcing strawberry

Product specification

Fresh strawberries vary by intended use: retail display, foodservice, or processing into puree or preserves. Set your specification around the variety and physical condition needed.

Variety & stage

Specify the variety (for example, Albion or Camarosa) and the ripeness stage at harvest, such as mature but firm for shipping or fully ripe for immediate use.

Physical specification

Agree on caliber (berry size), color, shape, and absence of defects like bruising or decay. Define acceptable tolerances for off-grade fruit.

Packaging & format

Confirm whether you need clamshells, punnets, or bulk cartons, and the pack weight. Match packaging to your retail or processing needs.

Quality acceptance

Quality assessment for fresh strawberries focuses on appearance, firmness, and shelf life. Agree on evaluation methods and how the shipment will be checked.

  • Field & arrival checks

    Define inspection points: at harvest, on loading, and at destination. Assess color, firmness, bruising, and decay using agreed methods.

  • Sensory & handling

    Taste representative berries for sweetness and flavor. Test firmness by hand or instrument if required, and note cold chain conditions.

  • Acceptance & claims

    Retain samples from the shipment and agree on the claim procedure for quality failures. Specify the time limit for filing claims.

Origin requirements

Origin affects seasonality, variety availability, and logistics. Determine whether you need a specific growing region or are flexible to maintain continuity.

Growing region

Request the farm or district and harvest season. For multiple origins, identify how each contributes to your supply calendar.

Harvest & availability

Ask when the berries were harvested, whether they are available now or for a future season, and the expected supply window.

Substitution rules

Define which origins or varieties you accept if the preferred source is unavailable. Set limits on flavor and shelf-life differences.

Commercial terms

Fresh strawberries are priced per pack or per kilogram, with terms depending on whether you buy ex-farm, FOB, or delivered. Compare offers on the same basis.

Price basis
Clarify whether the price is per kilogram, per pack, or per carton, and whether it includes packaging or pallet charges.
Delivery terms
Confirm ex-farm, FOB at origin, or delivered to your location. Align transport, cold chain, and insurance responsibilities.
Order terms
Match payment terms, minimum order quantity, and delivery schedules. Ensure the shipment window allows for peak ripeness.

Documentation & compliance

Check documentation to ensure the shipment meets import and food safety rules. Verify that paperwork matches the actual berries.

Shipment documents
Align lot numbers, weights, and pack counts across the invoice, packing list, and transport document. Check for phytosanitary certificates if required by the destination.
Food safety records
For destination markets with residue monitoring, ask for test results or evidence of compliance with applicable maximum residue limits.
Destination rules
Confirm any import permits or quarantine requirements for the destination country. For EU or other regulated markets, check the current traceability and due-diligence obligations.

Supplier capability

A grower, packer, exporter, or importer may control different stages of your order. Establish who is accountable for quality and logistics.

  • Packing & cold chain

    Identify who handles grading, packing, and cold storage, and who ensures temperature control from harvest to loading.

  • Volume & continuity

    Ask for the supplier's peak season capacity and ability to deliver consistently across the season. For year-round supply, check multiple origins and logistics.

  • Order fit

    Confirm minimum order size, sample availability, and flexibility for rush orders. For small volumes, ask if the supplier can consolidate with other buyers.
