Roughly June to September, filling the gap when Northern Hemisphere citrus is out of season. Peru has moved steadily towards easy-peeler varieties for European retail.

Citrus into the EU is closely inspected, so build the phytosanitary hold into the plan rather than treating it as an exception — the days it costs come off the shelf life the voyage preserved.
