What to look for when sourcing fresh peas

Product specification

Fresh peas are a perishable product, so the specification must balance appearance and eating quality with the practicalities of shipping and shelf life. Start with the intended use, whether for retail, foodservice, or processing.

Form & grade

Confirm whether you need unshelled peas in the pod or shelled peas, and agree on size or grade definitions such as 'small', 'medium', or 'large' based on the variety or sieve size.

Maturity & appearance

Set acceptance criteria for pod fill, pea color, and absence of defects like blemishes, decay, or insect damage. An objective scale, such as an agreed reference photo or a tenderness test, helps both parties.

Packaging & unit size

Define the package type, net weight per unit, and pallet configuration. For shelled peas, specify packing in bags, cartons, or bulk bins; for unshelled, specify loose fill or pre-pack weights.

Quality acceptance

Fresh peas degrade quickly, so quality acceptance must be tied to the condition at shipment and on arrival. Agree on sampling and inspection points before you commit.

Field and packing checks
Specify how the supplier checks maturity, size, and defects at packing. You may also agree on pre-shipment inspection by a third party or your own representative.
Arrival condition
Determine how temperature and transit time are monitored. For fresh peas, the condition at arrival, such as pod turgidity, absence of mold, and low decay, is a key acceptance factor.
Sample and inspection
Agree on a sampling plan and what constitutes an acceptable sample versus the full shipment. If you receive a pre-shipment sample, assess it immediately and retain a reference for comparison with the delivered lot.

Origin requirements

Fresh peas are seasonal and region-specific, so the origin affects availability and transit time. Clarify how much traceability you need and which origins are acceptable for your market.

Provenance

Request the growing region and, if required, the specific farm or grower cooperative. For fresh produce, a shorter supply chain usually means better freshness.

Seasonality

Ask which harvest window the offer covers and whether the supplier can deliver within that window. If you need supply beyond the main season, discuss overlapping origins or storage capabilities, but note that fresh peas have a limited shelf life.

Alternative origins

Define acceptable origins that provide consistent quality and fit your logistics. For repeat programs, agree on which origins you will accept as substitutes if the primary origin has a short crop.

Commercial terms

Fresh peas are sold on tight timelines, so the commercial terms must align with the short shelf life. Compare offers on the same delivery basis and payment conditions.

Price basis: Specify whether the price is per kilogram or per carton, and whether it includes packaging and cold chain. Clarify if freight and insurance are included or added separately.
Delivery terms: Define the delivery point and risk transfer, such as FOB at origin or delivered to your warehouse. For air freight or sea freight, specify who arranges transport and cold storage.
Order and payment: Agree on the order lead time, minimum order quantity, and payment terms such as advance payment, letter of credit, or payment on arrival. Also confirm the quote validity given the short seasonal window.

Documentation & compliance

For fresh produce, documentation must support customs clearance and prove phytosanitary compliance. Check that the paperwork matches the shipment you are buying.

Shipment records: Align lot numbers, weights, and packing dates across the invoice, packing list, and transport documents. For fresh peas, a phytosanitary certificate is often required for international trade; confirm with your destination country.
Origin and traceability: For regulated markets, you may need to provide proof of origin or traceability to the farm or packing facility. Establish what records the supplier can provide.
Destination rules: Check import requirements for fresh vegetables in your destination market, such as plant health inspections or labeling standards. These can vary by country and may change, so confirm before contracting.

Supplier capability

A grower, a packer, and an exporter each control different parts of the fresh pea supply chain. Establish who is accountable for quality and delivery from field to your facility.

Harvest and packing
Identify who manages the harvest schedule, cooling, and packing. Ask about capacity and how they handle peak demand or weather disruptions.
Cold chain management
Ask about pre-cooling, refrigerated transport, and temperature monitoring. Confirm the supplier can maintain the cold chain across your delivery route.
Order flexibility
Confirm the supplier can adjust volumes within a season and handle changes due to weather. For small orders, check minimum quantities and whether they can consolidate with other shipments.
