Manufacturing Process:

1. Receiving & Inspection:
Fresh broccoli is received from contracted farms and inspected for size, color, maturity, and overall quality.

2. Trimming & Cutting:
Broccoli heads are trimmed and cut into uniform florets and pieces to ensure consistency.

3. Washing & Cleaning:
The cuts are washed thoroughly to remove field debris, insects, and any foreign matter.

4. Blanching:
Broccoli is blanched to preserve natural color, flavor, and nutritional integrity.

5. Cooling & Draining:
Rapid cooling stops the cooking process, followed by draining excess water.

6. IQF Freezing:
Pieces are individually quick-frozen at −35°C to −40°C to maintain texture and prevent clumping.

7. Glazing Process:
A thin layer of purified water is applied to the surface of the broccoli to protect the florets from breaking during packing and handling.

8. Metal Detection & Packing:
Frozen broccoli passes through metal detection, then is packed in food-grade bags and sealed in export cartons.

9. Cold Storage:
Stored at −18°C until loading into pre-cooled reefer containers.

General Instructions:

• Keep frozen at −18°C.
