Papaya

Carica Papaya L., are cultivated in the north and jungle areas of Peru where stable temperatures and well-drained soils support high-quality fruit development. These papayas are small (300–600 g), pear-shaped, with sweet orange flesh and thin skin. Grown under strict phytosanitary controls, they comply with U.S. import requirements and are shipped using cold chain logistics to maintain freshness and extend shelf life.

Their consistent quality, flavor, and visual appeal position Peruvian papayas as a strong export product. These are generally available year round.
