Fresh Quince
2-layer, 32-count cartons. A short fall window — one of the most-requested Turkish items among Persian and Middle Eastern grocers.
Turkey is one of Shaly Foods Inc.'s three direct supply lines, alongside Egypt and the United States. The company imports fresh quince, figs, pomegranates, sour cherries and sour plums straight from Turkish growers and ships wholesale to grocers, restaurants and distributors across British Columbia, Alberta and the rest of Canada from its Vancouver base — sold by the carton and pallet, not the piece.
Each item below is seasonal — availability shifts through the year as Turkish harvest windows open and close. Request the current price list for what's actually landing this week.

Wholesale accounts across Metro Vancouver run on Shaly Foods' own delivery trucks — grocers in Surrey, North Vancouver, Coquitlam, Port Moody, Burnaby and Richmond order fresh Turkish quince, figs, pomegranates and sour cherries on standing weekly routes. Vancouver Island and the BC Interior (Kelowna, Kamloops, Victoria) get scheduled cross-dock delivery. Outside BC, Turkish produce ships refrigerated LTL and full pallet to Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta accounts, and by reefer freight to Ontario and east for standing volume.

Yes: $300 to $500, depending on your shipping area. Because quince, figs, pomegranates, sour cherries and sour plums each have a short Turkish harvest window, it's worth checking what's actually landing before you order — a mixed case across whatever's in season that week reaches the minimum faster than waiting on one item alone.
No. This line ships wholesale only — grocers, restaurants, food service and distributors buying to resell or serve. There's no retail counter or single-carton sales for home shoppers.
Pricing isn't published, since the line sheet changes weekly with the season and shipping schedule. Request the current price list through the contact form and Shaly Foods will send what's actually landing, usually the same business day.
