What Is Natural Sun-Dried Apricot No: 5 (Commercial)? & The Supply Process
Natural Sun-Dried Apricot No: 5 (Commercial) (161-180 pcs/kg) is the commercial-economical calibre class of unsulphured, naturally dried Malatya apricot. The smaller size is associated with a relatively shorter sun-drying time and can preserve aroma intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions About Natural Sun-Dried Apricot No: 5 (Commercial)
