GreenLand supplies IQF Frozen Sea Buckthorn Berries for importers, juice manufacturers, beverage factories, jam producers, fruit preparation factories, yogurt and ice cream processors, nutritional food ingredient buyers, foodservice distributors and retail private label programs. We source selected sea buckthorn berries, then sort, clean, drain, IQF freeze, inspect and pack them under frozen supply-chain control.
Common supply options include whole IQF sea buckthorn berries, standard whole berries, industrial-grade berries for juice or puree processing, and customized bulk packing. We mark the botanical name as Hippophae rhamnoides L. when required for product specification.

For clear procurement communication, we define this item as IQF frozen sea buckthorn whole berries. If you need sea buckthorn puree, pulp or other processed formats, we quote them separately after confirming the specification.

Fruit preparation, jam, drink processing |
Whole berries are better for retail and visual applications. Industrial-grade berries are more practical for juice, puree, jam and fruit-base factories where yield, acidity, Brix and price structure matter more than perfect appearance.
Brix, Acidity, Color and Application Confirmation
Brix & Acidity
Brix 8–10 can be used as a reference range. Final Brix and acidity are confirmed by crop condition, specification and application, such as beverage, puree or jam.
Color & Maturity
Natural orange to deep orange. Berries are selected at suitable maturity to balance color, flavor, acidity and juice quality.
Impurity Control
We control stems, leaves, thorns and field impurities to support processing efficiency and import quality.
