Grape sorting

Grapes are one of Iran's valuable horticultural products that are in high demand in various domestic and foreign markets. However, grapes, due to their delicate structure and higher sensitivity than many fruits, require special care in the harvesting, handling, sorting, and packaging stages.

How is grape sorting done?
In the sorting process, grape clusters are examined after entering the processing complex and are classified based on various quality criteria.
Important criteria in evaluating grapes include cluster health, size and shape of berries, color, uniformity, presence of external damage, and overall product quality.
The main goal of this process is to separate and classify the product in such a way that each order is ready to be supplied with a specific and controllable quality.
Why is grape sorting important for export?
In addition to proper taste and quality, exported grapes must also meet the standards of the destination market in terms of appearance. Improper packaging or the presence of damaged product can reduce the external quality of the entire package.
Proper sorting helps the producer and exporter to:
Categorize the product based on quality.
Separate unsuitable clusters from the exported product.
Create greater uniformity in packages.
Reduce visible waste and damage.
Make the order preparation process faster and more organized.
Package the product according to the needs of the target market.
