Import Tips

Provide particle size analysis if chunks are very fine to defend against reclassification as puree

Ensure cold chain from -20°C throughout to comply with FSIS import standards for fruit intended for further processing

Declare as 'for industrial use only' to potentially qualify for lower duties if applicable under trade programs
