In this article, we’ll explore why Egyptian garlic is a top choice for global buyers, how Gezira United ensures premium quality, and what makes us a leader in the garlic export industry.

Egypt has earned a reputation as one of the world’s leading garlic exporters, thanks to its unique agricultural advantages. The Nile Delta’s warm days and cool nights create the perfect conditions for growing flavorful, high-yield garlic. The fertile soil enriched by the Nile River ensures robust growth and superior taste. Additionally, Egypt’s strategic location near key markets in Europe, Asia, and Africa allows for faster and more cost-effective shipping.

At Gezira United, we’ve been cultivating garlic for generations, combining traditional farming methods with modern technology to deliver premium-quality garlic that meets the needs of global buyers.

We specialize in two main varieties of garlic. Purple garlic is known for its vibrant color and slightly milder flavor, making it perfect for gourmet dishes and retail markets. White garlic, on the other hand, is a versatile variety with a strong, aromatic flavor, ideal for culinary and industrial use.

Egyptian garlic is renowned for its rich flavor and aroma, which are comparable to Spanish and Argentine garlic. Unlike Chinese garlic, which is often criticized for its bland taste and heavy use of chemicals, Egyptian garlic offers a natural, robust flavor that enhances any dish.

Our garlic bulbs are available in sizes ranging from 5 to 8+ cm, with custom sizing options to meet your specific requirements. We offer flexible packaging solutions, including 10 kg or 13 kg carton boxes for retail-ready shipments and customizable mesh bags (5–25 kg) for bulk orders. When stored at the optimal temperature of 0–1°C, our garlic maintains its freshness for up to 12 months, ensuring it reaches your customers in perfect condition.

At Gezira United, we understand that quality and safety are non-negotiable for global buyers. That’s why we adhere to the highest industry standards. Our farms are GLOBALG.A.P. certified, ensuring safe and sustainable farming practices, traceability, and transparency. Additionally, our packing facilities are registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), making us compliant with stringent food safety regulations.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do at Gezira United. We’re committed to reducing our environmental impact while delivering premium-quality garlic. Our packing stations are powered entirely by solar energy, reducing our carbon footprint by 40%. All our packaging materials, including cartons and mesh bags, are 100% recyclable. We also use the latest irrigation techniques to conserve water and ensure sustainable farming practices.

One of the key advantages of sourcing garlic from Gezira United is our strategic location near Damietta Port. Just 20 km from our farms and packing stations, Damietta Port allows us to offer some of the fastest shipping times in the industry. For example, our garlic reaches Marseille, France, in 14 days and Hamburg, Germany, in 17 days. For buyers in the Americas, shipping times are 24 days to New York, USA, and 31 days to Santos, Brazil. African and Middle Eastern markets benefit from even faster delivery times of 7–10 days to major ports. Our state-of-the-art cold chain logistics ensure that your garlic arrives fresh and flavorful, no matter the destination.

From farm to port, we maintain strict quality control to ensure that every shipment meets our high standards. Our automated sorting and grading systems guarantee uniform size and quality, while our temperature-controlled storage preserves freshness. We understand that every buyer has unique needs, which is why we offer flexible minimum order quantities (MOQs), custom packaging, private labeling options, and tailored shipping schedules to meet your deadlines.
