Semi-husked coconuts are mature coconuts with most of the outer husk removed and a tuft left at the eye end, which protects the nut and shows that it is fresh. Removing the husk cuts the weight and volume, so far more nuts fit in a container. Grocers, food service and coconut processors in the Middle East, Europe and Asia buy them for grating, coconut milk and cooking.

Specification

• Size or weight grade per nut
• Nuts per mesh bag
• Maturity and water content
• Whether the nuts are polished or left natural

Supply and price

Coconut prices in Sri Lanka move with the harvest and the local market. We confirm availability and price for each shipment at the time of order.

Shipping

Fresh coconuts are shipped in ventilated or refrigerated containers, with a phytosanitary certificate. Transit time and storage matter, so tell us your port and how quickly the nuts are sold. Desiccated coconut, coconut milk and virgin coconut oil can travel in the same shipment if you need them.
