Frozen Egyptian green beans for foodservice and ready meals
Egypt harvests green beans in two windows, April to July and again October to December, which means we can offer fresh-crop product for most of the year. The beans are graded, trimmed, blanched and individually quick frozen, so they keep their green colour and their snap instead of turning soft and grey. Restaurants, caterers, soup and ready-meal producers and retail packers work with frozen beans because portioning takes seconds, there is no trimming waste, and the quality is the same in March as it is in May.
Frequently asked questions
In which sizes and cuts are frozen green beans available?
Whole and cut green beans. Other sizes and cuts are produced to your specification.
When are Egyptian green beans harvested?
In two seasons: April to July and October to December. Both crops are frozen in season and shipped from our cold stores throughout the year.
Are the beans blanched before freezing?
Yes. They are blanched and then individually quick frozen, which sets the colour and keeps the beans free-flowing rather than frozen into a block.
In which packs are frozen green beans supplied?
Bulk in 1 × 10 kg cartons, food service in 10 × 1 kg or 4 × 2.5 kg bags per carton, and retail in 20 × 400 g Egy Berries bags per carton. Private label in your own brand, sizes and labels is available on request.
