IQF Plum Information and Supply

Uren can provide individually quickly frozen (IQF) Plum as part of our IQF fruit range, packaged and delivered to your choice of location, whether it be directly or to a cold store for service deliveries. Uren is a leading supplier of IQF foods in the UK which means we can source IQF Plum in a variety of cuts to suit manufacturing and food service needs, including:

• Halved
• Quartered

Sourced from our expert growers in Serbia, our IQF Plum is of the highest quality and grown to industry standards. Plums are a juicy stone fruit, popular globally and is commonly used in salads, desserts, tarts, and to make chutney.

IQF Plum has the same great taste, texture, health benefits, and nutrients as fresh plum but with a much longer shelf life which maximises its convenience.

Process

Uren’s IQF Plum is sourced from our BRC accredited suppliers in Serbia and is grown to industry standards.

The crop in Serbia is harvested in August- September, and stored frozen in the UK ready to use all year round.

When the Plum has been harvested, it is taken back to the factory to be cleaned, quality checked, washed, and cut according to customer requirements. The Plum is then individually quick frozen at incredibly low temperatures to prevent the formation of ice crystals to lock in flavour, freshness, and ensure a free-flowing product.

Shelf Life: 24 months from production

Packaging: 10kg carton

Minimum order quantity: 1 Pallet
