Palmera Dates Agriculture And Trading
Palmera (www.palmera-dates.com) was established in 2019 by Al Foah LLC and Blume Agricultural Projects LLC and is now leading a revolutionary transformation of Medjool dates agriculture and manufacturing in Jordan, something we plan to scale to USA, KSA, UAE and Egypt in the medium term as well as scaling into other dates varieties. Our sourcing approach starts with close planning, group sourcing and operations management in collaboration with our contract farmers through robust agricultural programs, method statements and peer reviews to ensure highest quality of harvest crowned with fair pricing mechanism to farmers. We own the best machinery (Elisam True Sort installed in 2020 and upgraded with Deep Learning module of 2022) for post harvest management sorting dates based on size, external quality, internal quality and moisture content increasing shelf life and product durability. We are proud to have a number of quality certification such as BRCs, ISO 22000, and Global GAP. All our shipments are certified to buyers by Bureau Veritas. Palmera is also a USFDA registered entity. We work on Non GMO products, all natural and MRL free guaranteed dates and dates related products with access to Ecocert organic farms. In 2021, Palmera won the Khalifa Best Pack House Award in Jordan
