Roughly February to July, shipping from storage well past the harvest itself. Apples are what keeps Chilean volume moving after the summer fruit has finished and the ports have calmed down.
A stored apple programme is the most flexible thing on this page: the seller decides when the container sails. That flexibility is also why apple containers are the ones nobody watches — and demurrage does not care that the cargo was not in a hurry.
