Import Tips

• Verify cherry variety is sweet (e.g

• Bing or Lambert) via supplier certificates to avoid reclassification to sour varieties

• Include lab analysis for sugar content and Brix value if required, as it impacts preservation claims

• Watch for pesticide residues common in cherries; provide MRL compliance docs to prevent FDA holds
