Freeze Dried Plum Price – FOB Iran

Freeze dried plum should not be compared to conventional dried plum/prune, which trades as a low-cost bulk commodity (roughly USD 2–8/kg wholesale in major producing countries like Chile, the US, and France). Freeze dried plum is a distinct, higher-value category, reflecting both the freeze-drying process cost and a fresh-to-dry ratio of roughly 6–8 kg fresh fruit per 1 kg finished product.

Indicative price range: USD 18–30 per kg, FOB Iran, varying by product form (whole/halved vs. powder), packaging, and order volume. This range reflects current global market pricing for freeze dried stone fruit and is provided for reference only, not a fixed quotation.

Final pricing depends on your required volume, product form, packaging, Incoterms, and destination country. [Contact us for an official FOB/CIF quote.]

Incoterms: FOB Bandar Abbas, CIF, EXW (others negotiable) Payment Terms: T/T, L/C — negotiable per contract Lead Time: 2–4 weeks from confirmed order, depending on volume and packaging

Sauces, glazes & culinary use — rehydrated freeze dried plum for authentic Persian-style sauces, stews, and marinades
Private label / retail-ready products — repackaged under a buyer’s own brand

Freeze Dried vs. Sun-Dried Plum (Prune):

Conventional dried plum — commonly sold as “prunes” — is heat- or sun-dried, producing a dense, sticky, dark-colored fruit with a long shelf life but a heavily concentrated, chewy texture. Freeze dried plum uses low-temperature vacuum sublimation instead of heat, keeping the fruit’s original color, tartness, and a light, crisp texture rather than the soft, sticky mass typical of conventional prunes.

Freeze dried plum is not a substitute for bulk commodity prunes used in high-volume snacking or laxative-effect health products — it targets a different, premium ingredient use case where texture, color, and clean-label claims matter more than shelf-stable density.

Why Import Freeze Dried Plum from Iran?

Traditional plum cultivation: Iran has a long-standing culinary and agricultural tradition with plum varieties (including sour plum types used in Persian cuisine), grown across regions such as Khorasan Razavi and Azerbaijan provinces.
Competitive FOB pricing: Lower processing and labor costs compared to Western freeze-drying operations support a competitive price point.
Port access: Shipping via Bandar Abbas covers the Middle East, Central Asia, and onward routes to Europe.
Full traceability: Fresh plums sourced directly from contracted orchards, processed shortly after harvest for peak freeze-drying quality.

Transparency note: For conventional dried plum/prunes, Chile, the United States, and France are the dominant global origins and set commodity market pricing. Iran is not a leading volume exporter in this category, but offers genuine plum-growing heritage and distinct varieties valued in Middle Eastern and Persian cuisine — this page should be positioned around quality, traceability, and culinary authenticity rather than claiming top global export volume.

Frequently Asked Questions About Freeze Dried Plum

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for freeze dried plum?

100 kg for sample/trial orders; container-load volumes available for regular distributors.

Is freeze dried plum the same as a prune?

No. Prunes are conventionally sun- or heat-dried and sold as a low-cost bulk commodity. Freeze dried plum is processed by vacuum sublimation, producing a crisp, lighter-textured, higher-value product used differently in food manufacturing.

Why is freeze dried plum more expensive than regular dried prunes?

Freeze drying is a more energy- and equipment-intensive process than sun- or hot-air drying, and requires roughly 6–8 kg of fresh plums per 1 kg of finished product — both factors place it in a different price category than commodity prunes.

What is the shelf life of freeze dried plum?

18–24 months in original sealed packaging, stored in a cool, dry place away from pressure that could crush the fragile pieces.

What forms of freeze dried plum do you supply?

Whole, halved, and powder — depending on your application.

Can I get freeze dried plum under my own brand (private label)?

Yes — retail-ready pouches and cartons with custom branding are available for qualifying order volumes.

What Incoterms and lead time do you offer?

FOB Bandar Abbas, CIF, and EXW, with typical lead times of 2–4 weeks after order confirmation.
