Apple Grading for Export
Export apples are typically classified into several grades based on appearance, size, color, and intended use. Understanding these classifications helps importers choose the best option for their market needs.
Most Common Grades:
Grade A (Class I)
Uniform in size and shape, full in color, blemish-free, and ideal for retail and fresh consumption.
Grade B (Class II)
May have minor imperfections or slight variation in size or color. Suitable for general sale and cooking.
Processing Grade (Grade C)
Intended for industrial use, such as juice, puree, or baking, these apples may have visible surface flaws but are fully safe and usable.

At Silver Balcony, we primarily export Class I (Grade A) Iranian apples, but we can also offer other grades based on our clients’ specific needs.
