Orange Juice Origin and Supply

Brazil is the world's largest orange juice exporter with over $900 million in frozen concentrate exports in 2023; the São Paulo state accounts for approximately 80% of Brazilian production. Spain is the largest EU orange producer with approximately 3.6 million tonnes; the Comunitat Valenciana and Andalusia regions supply NFC and concentrate for European juice markets from November to June. Mexico is the second-largest frozen orange juice concentrate exporter with approximately $342 million in 2023 exports; the Veracruz and Tamaulipas states dominate citrus processing infrastructure. All EU imports must comply with pesticide maximum residue levels under Regulation 396/2005, with regular monitoring particularly for citrus products.


Bulk Orange Juice

Orange juice oxidizes rapidly upon exposure to air, requiring nitrogen flushing for aseptic packaging or continuous cold chain for NFC products. Frozen concentrate ships in 200-litre steel drums or 1,000-litre containers at -18°C. NFC juice requires storage below 4°C with a 7-10 day shelf life once opened. Request microbiological testing results for total plate count and yeast/mold levels before accepting shipments, particularly for aseptic products.


Organic Orange Juice

Brazil and Spain both offer EU Organic certified orange juice from dedicated organic groves. Dual USDA NOP and EU Organic certification is available but requires additional documentation and longer lead times due to dual certification requirements. Organic supply concentrates during the main harvest windows - Brazilian supply from June to November, Spanish from December to May.


Orange Juice Private Label

Private label formats include retail cartons, glass bottles, pouches, and single-serve containers from 200ml to 2-litre sizes. MOQ typically ranges from 10,000 to 50,000 units depending on packaging format. Confirm Brix levels and pulp content specifications before production starts, as these affect both taste profile and production line settings.


Orange Juice Manufacturers

Orange juice manufacturers concentrate in Brazil's São Paulo citrus belt, Spain's Valencia region, and Mexico's Veracruz state where processing infrastructure supports both concentrate and NFC production. Request batch-specific certificates of analysis showing Brix levels, acidity, and microbiological parameters.

Nutrada lists GFSI-certified orange juice suppliers from Brazil, Spain, and Mexico, covering NFC and concentrate across conventional and organic supply. All orders are placed directly with certified suppliers, with no intermediary.
