Two windows a year rather than one: the main harvest from roughly July to November, and a thinner one from February to April. The second is real volume rather than the tail of the first, but it is small enough to sit in the shoulder band above — a buyer working from a single-season assumption will still miss it.
Dragon fruit has moved from air to sea as growers learned what it tolerates. It is high-value, low-volume cargo with a narrow temperature margin, which makes a lost container a serious loss rather than an annoyance.
