Tunisian date production is estimated at 390 thousand tonnes this season, compared with 340 thousand tonnes last season, according to the Ministry of Agriculture. More than 200 date varieties are grown in Tunisia, but the most widespread variety is Deglet Ennour. The date harvest season is now in full swing in Tunisia, and the date industry is doing well compared to other crops that have suffered a year of drought.

Tunisia is the world's largest date palm exporter in terms of value; date palm products are mainly exported to Morocco, France and Germany. In Tunisia, most efforts have been focused on developing the fresh date industry. However, processing date values is considered a secondary activity. But that is expected to change. As our customers said, dates are generally sorted into three or more grades according to diameter to meet the market's demand for different qualities. The profits gained in this way are several times higher than selling them directly. Moreover, processed dates have a longer shelf life, providing greater flexibility for marketing.

We currently have dates grading machines, jujube dry cleaning and grading machines, dates cleaning and air-drying sorting and packaging lines, etc. If you are looking for such processing machines, please feel free to contact us.
