Batch traceability & export documentation

Each shipment includes full traceability and standard export paperwork to support regulatory clearance and buyer QA:

  • Certificates: GlobalGAP / HACCP / ISO22000 copies
  • Phytosanitary certificates and export health documentation as required by destination

Supply stability is supported by sourcing across three provinces. Zhengzhou Fenglu targets a punctuality rate of 95% on‑time delivery and a service response standard of within 1 hour for order queries.

Typical lead times depend on order size, port of loading and destination; please request a formal quotation for firm timing and freight options (air/sea/land).

Practical receiving tips for buyers

  1. Check temperature records on arrival and compare with recommended 8–12°C range.
  2. Inspect a statistically representative sample of cartons for color, firmness and skin integrity.
  3. Verify batch ID on cartons against the traceability report and certificates.
  4. Record any non-conformances immediately and notify supplier with supporting photos and batch details.
