Strong pungent flavor, natural white skin with slight purple stripes, and reliable supply from Shandong. The preferred choice for importers serving Africa, Southeast Asia, and beyond.
Normal white garlic is recognized by its natural white outer skins with slight purple stripes. This variety is prized for its strong, pungent flavor, tight clove wrapping, and excellent storage characteristics — making it the garlic of choice for culinary traditions across Africa, Southeast Asia, and South Asia.
Grown in the fertile plains of Shandong province, our normal white garlic benefits from the region's ideal soil composition, temperate climate, and generations of farming expertise. Each bulb develops plump, uniform cloves with a high allicin content — the compound responsible for garlic's characteristic aroma and health benefits.
ExCrop controls the entire export process: from harvesting and field-curing to size sorting, quality inspection, and container loading. Our cold-storage capacity ensures consistent supply from June through March, while our proximity to Qingdao Port guarantees efficient, on-time delivery to your destination port.
