8520 taro
Shandong China
20251014
Shandong 8520 Hairy Taro is a premium fresh taro variety selected for stable shape, good cooking performance, and consistent commercial grading. It is supplied as Grade A fresh taro with reliable post-harvest handling to support long-distance distribution. This product is ideal for buyers who need predictable sizing options, clean external appearance, and dependable supply planning for wholesale markets, retail packing, and foodservice channels.
Harvested in August and managed under controlled conditions, the taro is stored at 4°C to maintain firmness and reduce quality loss during storage and transport. The exterior typically shows a brown skin tone with natural “hairy” texture, while the interior cooks into a smooth, starchy texture suitable for a wide range of cuisines.
Grade A sorting helps buyers reduce trimming loss and improve pack-out rate—important for repackers and wholesale programs that rely on stable appearance.
The product can be supplied across several weight ranges (as shown in the image), allowing you to match different channels:
Larger sizes for premium retail display and foodservice
Medium sizes for standard wholesale
Smaller sizes for value packs and processing
Recommended 4°C storage supports firmness retention and reduces spoilage risk in distribution cycles and reefer handling.
Standard packing supports efficient loading and downstream distribution:
10kg cartons for clean stacking and retail repacking workflows
Mesh bag options for ventilation-focused handling (when requested)
This item can be supplied under widely recognized food safety and farm management systems:
HACCP, BRC, GLOBALG.A.P—helpful for buyers working with strict procurement requirements.
Wholesale markets & import distribution: bulk supply for regional turnover
Retail repacking: 10kg cartons for re-labeling and portion packs
Foodservice: taro in soups, stews, hotpot, fried taro dishes
Processing / kitchens: taro cubes, taro paste, taro dessert ingredients (depending on buyer’s program)
