What we ship to United States
How this market actually buys
Pakistani mango enters the USA via mandatory APHIS-supervised irradiation in Dubai. Sea freight not viable for mango due to shelf life. We hold APHIS-approved packaging certification.
USA mango is air via Dubai irradiation. We will not quote a sea reefer to the US for mango — shelf life does not survive it. The importer holds the APHIS-PPQ permit; we hold APHIS-grade packing and the phyto chain. FDA prior notice is your broker’s filing; we send the data pack in time. Specialty basmati and cotton yarn are separate, non-irradiation programs.
APHIS irradiated mango
You hold the APHIS PPQ permit. We pack to an APHIS-grade carton and send the data. The fruit flies via Dubai irradiation. Cities on this lane are JFK, LAX, and ORD, as arrival airports, not as Pakistani load ports.
No sea mango to the United States
We do not quote a sea container of mango to the United States. The shelf life does not survive that voyage. Ask for air, or ask for a different country.
Dubai is the irradiation hop
Dubai on a USA mango booking is the irradiation stop. It is not the UAE retail program. Say which one you mean in the first message.
FDA prior notice
Your broker files FDA prior notice for the food entry. We send the data pack in time. We do not file the notice ourselves.
Specialty basmati
USA rice is a selected-mill basmati program. It does not ride the mango irradiation path, and it is narrower than the UK offer.
Cotton yarn
Yarn is a separate lane from lint. Count and mill go on the proforma. The minimum changes with the count. Punjab lint above 30 mm is not an offer. That staple is not this origin.
Documentation
Phytosanitary, USDA APHIS PPQ Form 587, irradiation pre-clearance, Halal, Certificate of Origin. FDA prior notice for food imports.
Programme and lead times
A confirmed order plans at 14 days to sea dispatch, or 5 days for air. Spot space depends on the vessel. A weekly sailing is not a promise on every line.
Mango on this desk is May through September. Rice moves year-round from stored lots. The new-crop conversation is October through February. Onion is not a standing line on this desk. Cotton follows the ginning window, roughly October through February, and only as the product named here, lint or yarn.
Compliance and quality
Lots for United States leave with the papers that commodity uses: phytosanitary where the crop needs it, Halal on food, KCCI origin, and the treatment or lab sheet for that product. Mango hot water is 48°C for 60–90 minutes. Grain fumigation is the contractor certificate. The document pack goes out before the bill of lading. Your broker files the destination entry. Zarkaar is not the importer of record.
Zarkaar does not claim GlobalG.A.P., BRC, organic, or SMETA. A buyer-side audit stays with the buyer. Those marks are not printed on a bag or a carton from this desk.
