HICAZ POMEGRANETE FROM TURKEY
The pomegranate is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub or small tree growing to between five and eight meters tall. Presently “Hicaz” is the only export variety of Turkey. It is characterized by pink-reddish skin, crimson inside and slightly sour-astringent taste. While 1st and 2nd quality pomegranates are demanded for table consumption, lower quality Hicaz pomegranates are dema nded by the fruit juice industry. Hicaz variety is collected from Aegean and southern region of Turkey.
Hicaz type of pomegranate is exported the most and the other export types are grouped according to the size and the color of it and the softness of the seeds.

With a primary focus on grape, pear and pomegranate, we are producing top quality fruit in our farms and purchasing from other farms that we supervise.

We work continuously with our growers to help them in managing their farms and educating them on the best techniques for maximum quality.
When we have started Ileri Tarim in 2006, it was with a mission to provide the best quality fruits to consumers. The mission also included not forgetting the social responsibilities of their backgrounds - to care for the workers who make this quality possible.
From a state of the art warehouse and packing facility in Usak, Turkey, our fruit is distributed throughout the year to all over Turkey, Europe, Middle East and Asia. The same quality production is shipped directly from the growing areas to the markets.
