Conventional grape leaves in brine are the reference program for buyers who need stable quality, controlled sorting, and competitive volume pricing. This grade is used across retail import, ready-meal manufacturing, foodservice, and private-label procurement.
The conventional specification prioritises a tight mechanical sort: whole leaves ratio 95% minimum, broken leaves maximum 1%, brown leaves / holes / spots maximum 3%, and branch stems maximum 0.05%. Appearance is golden yellow, characteristic of brine-cured grape leaves.
This program is often the practical choice for cost-sensitive, high-volume buyers because it balances visual consistency, wrapping yield, and export-ready packaging. Available formats include 10 Kg and 20 Kg food-grade HDPE buckets, plus 150 Kg and 180 Kg drums for industrial use.
