Apples from Poland for importers in India

We grow and export apples from our own family orchards in Grójec, Poland, selling straight to importers with no intermediary. Indian importers buy Red Delicious (Red Chief, Jeromine) and Gala from us most often, with Golden Delicious available in yellow or green, all under GLOBALG.A.P. Chain of Custody. Message us on WhatsApp with variety, calibre, packaging and container count to get a specification and price.

EU apple exports to India

Source: UN Comtrade, HS 0808 10 (fresh apples), EU exports outside the Union, 2025 vs 2024 — analysis by Agriteo. Agriteo: EU apple exports 2025 — 1.05 million tonnes, top 10 markets

India took 70 578 tonnes of EU apples in 2025, up 12.2% year on year, and Poland led all EU origins with 32 110 tonnes ahead of Italy's 29 073 tonnes. The EU–India trade agreement finalised in early 2026 is set to lower tariffs on EU fruit, which changes the landed-cost calculation for Indian importers buying Polish apples.

• Poland is already the number-one EU origin here, ahead of Italy — the supply chain to India is established, not experimental.
• The EU–India agreement finalised in early 2026 is expected to reduce duty on EU apples; we can quote so you can model landed cost before and after.
• Indian buyers usually specify colour percentage and calibre tightly; we pack to your written spec.
