Mazafati Dates Harvest Is in Progress!

AriaFoods is excited to share updates on the 2025 Mazafati dates harvest. As one of Iran’s most popular and sought-after date varieties, Mazafati continues to lead both domestic and international markets. This update looks at this year’s crop quality and quantity, compares it with 2024, and highlights commercial opportunities through the AriaFoods supply network.

A Symbol of Taste and Tradition

Mazafati dates are treasured for their soft texture and rich flavor. They are a favorite during Ramadan and throughout the year. The harvest begins in mid-August and continues through September, with Bam in Kerman Province as the main production area.

This region produces a significant share of the world’s premium Mazafati dates, reinforcing Iran’s position in the global date industry.

2025 Harvest Update vs. 2024

The 2024 season experienced cold spells and tropical rains, which lowered yields and harmed fruit in some areas. In contrast, the 2025 harvest shows a more stable performance:

Quantity: Overall production is close to last year’s level, ensuring a steady supply.

Cluster Dryness: Farmers report less drying of fruit clusters, which leads to more healthy, marketable dates.

Soil and Dust Exposure: This season experienced slightly more soil contact, requiring extra care in cleaning and processing.

Buyers can expect consistent availability and good quality, though careful post-harvest handling is essential to maintain export-grade presentation.

 

AriaFoods’ Quality Commitment

Through strong partnerships with local farmers, AriaFoods keeps a close eye on harvesting, sorting, and quality checks. Field teams harvest dates by hand, then sort and grade them right away to maintain freshness.

In response to this year’s increased soil exposure, our team has tightened cleaning, grading, and packaging standards. This ensures that every shipment meets international standards for cleanliness, texture, and taste.

Market Opportunities Ahead

Global demand for Mazafati dates continues to rise, especially before Ramadan. Early-season sourcing allows buyers to secure fresher stock at better prices.

The harvest season typically begins in early to mid-September and lasts through October.

2025 Harvest Update vs. 2024

The 2024 season faced heavy losses, as monsoon rains and storms reduced yields by almost 40%. This year, growers report a much more stable and positive outcome:

Quantity: Harvest volumes are close to last year’s levels, ensuring a steady supply for buyers.

Quality: The quality of the fruit has improved significantly. Dates have a deeper color and a higher ratio of premium-grade black Rabbi dates.
