Channel Partnership
In dried apricots the hard part is not finding the goods; it is finding the same size, the same colour and the same texture again in the next batch. We settle on the size and packaging that suit your channel and aim to hold that line through the season.

In dried apricots there is no single definition of “good product” — the good product is the one that fits the channel you sell into. Below is what each channel actually looks at; it is enough to tick where you recognise yourself in the application.
In this channel appearance comes before price; mixed sizes cause more complaints here than anywhere else.
In chain purchasing the critical point is not one-off quality but being able to repeat the same quality.
The biggest risk online is a gap between the photo the customer saw and the product that reaches them.
Here the business turns on price; but if the size separation is not clear, the next order does not come.
Demand tends to concentrate in certain periods; in this channel early planning matters more than anything else.
Apricots are harvested once a year. That is why when you start talking matters as much as how much you buy. The order below is the same every year; the calendar itself is set by the weather, which is why we do not write month names.
The fruit is picked from the orchards.
Nothing to do in this period; the first signals about the crop are forming.
The fruit is dried and separated into sizes.
A buyer who talks in this period can choose the size they want, deliberately.
Şire Pazarı becomes active and batches change hands.
The busiest period for demand. A buyer who is late has to choose from what is left.
Stocks fall and size options narrow.
Buyers with a regular programme can still find the same size in this period; those without take what they can find.
This is why we suggest having the dealership conversation before the season opens. Talking early does not mean any commitment; it simply increases your chance of choosing the size you want, deliberately.
Once your channel is clear we settle two things: which size and which packaging. Both affect price and delivery time.
Dried apricots are separated by size; larger sizes are preferred in presentation and gift lines, while smaller sizes are chosen for food industry use and cost-driven sales. Which size suits you is something we determine together once we know your intended use.
The two products speak to different customers: sulphured fruit is light yellow and bright, unsulphured (sun-dried) is darker and more natural looking. Which one sells depends on your channel and customer profile; some dealers prefer to carry both.
Work is possible in bulk, in cartons or in retail packaging. Which packaging formats are possible varies with the product and the quantity; if you want packaging under your own brand, that needs a separate conversation.
If you have answers to these four questions, we can talk about price in the first conversation.
Who will you sell to?
Counter, shelf, online or corporate — the channel determines the product.
Which appearance do you want?
Bright light yellow or natural dark? Which one is your customer looking for?
Will you do the packaging?
Will you buy in bulk and pack it yourself, or do you want it ready packed?
One-off or seasonal?
A single purchase is fine; but if you are thinking seasonally, setting the plan up front works in your favour.
Seven fields. We do not ask for documents, prepayment or any commitment — let us talk first and understand each other.
No. The application and the conversation are free; there is no joining fee, no membership fee and no obligation to buy stock. The business runs on the goods you purchase.
We do not commit to that up front. Regional priority is something that can be discussed once a regular way of working and a volume have been established. We would rather not start with a promise we cannot keep.
For businesses with a serious intention to buy, a sample can be sent depending on the product and the period. It is not possible for every size and every period, so we settle this in conversation.
We do not hold an independent laboratory report issued for every batch, and we do not want to present a document we do not have as if we did. If there is a value you need, tell us and we will look together at how it can be resolved for that batch.
It can be considered depending on the request. Packaging type, printing and labelling requirements depend on the product and on the channel you sell into, so once we have your request we can tell you clearly how it can be done.
We do not publish prices on the site. In dried apricots the price changes with size, product type, packaging and how the season is going — a ready list would be misleading. Send us your request and we will confirm the current position to you in writing.
