Fresh Red Onions
Sindh red onions — cured, graded and shipped from Karachi
HS Code — 0703.10
Overview
Sourced at origin,
specified for export
Pakistan's export onion is the deep red-pink Sindh crop, harvested from November when regional supply runs thin. We source from the Hyderabad–Mirpurkhas belt, where onions are field-cured, topped and graded before they move to port.
Punjab's spring crop extends the window into early summer, letting us quote across most of the year.

Why Pakistani Origin
Sindh's early crop reaches Gulf and Far East markets when few origins are harvesting, and the deep-red varieties Pakistan grows are exactly what those markets ask for by name.
