Pomelo (Da Xanh/Nam Roi)

Pomelo fruit (Citrus maxima) is the largest citrus fruit in the world, originating from Southeast Asia and classified within the Rutaceae family. It features a thick rind, pale green to yellow skin, and flesh ranging from white-yellow to deep pink depending on the variety. Two dominant varieties, Da Xanh and Nam Roi, form the backbone of Vietnamese pomelo exports to Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Asia. For importers evaluating pomelo as a sourcing category, understanding variety differences is essential for matching the right product to the right market. Da Xanh delivers pink flesh with a Brix range of 9 to 13%, making it a strong fit for premium and supermarket channels. Nam Roi offers yellow flesh with a Brix of 8 to 11%, well-positioned for mainstream and ethnic retail segments. Both varieties share a 60-day shelf life at 2 to 4°C and ship by air or sea freight.View specifications ↓

Production Process

01Controlled Growing & Harvesting

GOBE IMEX sources fresh produce from more than 30 hectares of company-managed farms and over 200 hectares cultivated in cooperation with local growers. The company states that these growing areas operate under GlobalG.A.P standards, with regular monitoring of cultivation practices and residue levels.

02Rapid Transfer from Farm to Packing House

Freshly harvested produce is moved promptly to GOBE’s packing network. Its main packing house is strategically located in the Mekong Delta fruit-growing region, allowing fruit to be transferred from farm to processing within approximately 12 hours of harvest.

03Selection, Grading & Market-Specific Packing

At the packing facility, produce is inspected, sorted and prepared for export according to product condition and destination-market requirements. Packing specifications can be adapted to different importers, retail channels and international markets.

04Pre-Cooling & Cold-Chain Handling

After packing, products are kept under temperature-controlled conditions to protect freshness and extend shelf life. GOBE integrates pre-cooling, cold storage and refrigerated transportation into its post-harvest handling system.

05Refrigerated Dispatch to Port or Airport

Finished shipments are transported through GOBE’s cold-chain network, including its own refrigerated container trailers. Its Ho Chi Minh City facility also serves as a consolidation point for cold storage, export documentation and connections to international air and sea freight.

Why Choose Us

Freshness Starts Close to the Farm

Rather than transporting produce long distances before processing, GOBE positions its main packing operation in one of Vietnam’s major fruit-producing regions. This setup enables fruit to move from harvest to packing within about 12 hours, reducing unnecessary post-harvest time before entering the cold chain.

Extensive Farm Network Behind the Supply Chain

GOBE combines more than 30 hectares of its own growing areas with over 200 hectares operated in cooperation with local farmers. This broader sourcing network gives the company access to different crops, growing areas and harvest windows instead of relying on a single source.

Cold Chain Under Greater Direct Control

Temperature management continues beyond the packing house. GOBE states that it operates its own refrigerated container trailers, helping maintain controlled conditions between the packing facilities and export gateways while reducing cold-chain interruptions.

Compliance for Diverse Buyer Requirements

GOBE lists GlobalG.A.P, GRASP, ISO, FDA and Sedex among its international compliance credentials. Its packing and export operations are designed to serve wholesalers, distributors and supermarket channels with different specifications for quality, packing and destination-market compliance.
