Farming

Blue Nile’s farming operation.

K70, which is located on the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road, is home to 2000 acres farming Grapes, Sweet Potatoes, Beans, Peas, Raspberries and Organic Spring Onions. 

 

El Salheya, located towards Ismailia, is where he company’s onions programme is grown on over 2000 acres of land. Our Salheya operaton has been delivering top quality Spring Onions to European markets for 20+ years

 

Our farms are located in strategic areas that provide the best possible conditions for growing whilst minimising possible weather and disease hazards. Their locations provide a greater pool of labor and dilute the risk of bottlenecks. These important factors have resulted in our ability to maintain continuous and consistent supply of our range.

 

Our packhouses are a vital element to the safe and fast distribution of our products. They are located in areas close to our farms, thus reducing the transport time taken to move raw materials and the time needed for cooling and preparing the produce for export.
