1. Our Varieties: Excellence in Every Layer
We specialize in the two most demanded varieties in the global market, ensuring each bulb meets strict calibration and skin quality standards.
Turkish Yellow Onions (The Workhorse)
Grown primarily in the Polatlı (Ankara) and Amasya regions, these onions are famous for their high dry matter content and thick, golden skins.
- Shelf Life: Exceptional durability (up to 6-8 months in cold storage).
- Flavor Profile: Sharp, pungent, and perfect for industrial processing or household cooking.
- Availability: Fresh harvest starts in June; stored supply available until April.
Turkish Red Onions (The Gourmet Choice)
Our red onions, mainly sourced from the Middle regions of Turkiye, are prized for their deep purple exterior and crunchy texture.
- Culinary Use: High demand in the HORECA (Hotel/Restaurant/Cafe) sector for salads and garnishes.
- Visual Appeal: Uniform shape and vibrant internal rings.
Harvesting Calendar: Freshness All Year Round
Strategic sourcing across Turkiye’s micro-climates allows us to maintain a consistent supply chain:
- Winter/Early Spring: Supply from state-of-the-art cold storage facilities.
- April – May: “Short-day” fresh onions from the southern regions (Adana/Hatay).
- June – August: Peak harvest season for long-day storage onions.
