Onions may look rugged, but sourcing them well is about subtle details. Variety, curing, size grade and packing all affect how the bulbs arrive and how long they hold, making a clear sourcing process essential for importers.

Choosing the right onion

Buyers choose between yellow, red and white onions depending on their market, flavour profile and use. Yellow onions are all-rounders with good storage, red onions add colour and milder heat, and each needs the right curing and packing.

How Huasheng sources onions

Huasheng selects onions from established growing regions, ensures they are properly cured, and grades them by size and skin quality before packing. Clear specifications on calibre and packing help us deliver bulbs that meet your needs.

Practical tips for sourcing

Agree on variety, size grade, skin condition and packing early, and request samples for large orders. A supplier that manages curing and storage well provides onions with the firmness and shelf life your market expects.
