What distinguishes the Medjool date.

The Medjool date – often simply called Medjool in the trade – is a large, soft date with a richly sweet, caramel-like note. It is regarded as one of the preferred varieties for fine retail, gift packs and food service.

Egypt is one of the important producing countries. We source the goods from growers and packing houses at origin and bring them to Germany, where Luxor Orient is based in Frankfurt am Main.

Origin

Our Medjool dates come from Egypt. Well-known growing areas include oases and palm groves, among them Siwa and the wider Nile region. We tell you exactly where a given lot was harvested and packed once the goods are fixed – we do not attribute origin here to a single farm that we cannot name.

Buying directly from the grower means, for us, that grading, harvest stage and packing can be verified before the goods begin their journey to Europe.

Sizes, quality and packing

In the wholesale trade, Medjool dates are usually distinguished by size and presentation. What we can supply depends on the current harvest and the lot in question. We give all of these details on request.

Sizes and grades

In the trade, size grades such as Jumbo, Large and Medium are common. We confirm the size grade and the visual quality of a lot on request. We deliberately do not publish a fixed size table on this page as if stock were always on hand.

Packing

Cartons are typical for wholesale; other packing – for example smaller units for resale – is possible by agreement. Packing, weight per unit and palletisation are given on request.

Certificates

We provide certificates and laboratory tests where they are available for the specific lot. We do not advertise blanket seals here. Particulars are set out in the offer or follow on request.

Ordering and delivery

We work as a classic B2B business: lots for traders, grocery retail, distributors and food service. Quantities, delivery date and how the goods are handled – including cooling where it is appropriate – are agreed in discussion.

You can send an enquiry via the contact form or directly by email to luxor-orient@gmx.de. By telephone we can be reached on +49 1573 8347329.
