Wadi Dates

A Specialized Export Date with High Operational Stability for Wholesale Trade

Wadi Dates are a semi-dry Egyptian variety built for wholesale importers and distributors who need lower moisture, controlled sweetness, and reliable long-term storage performance. Supplied by Oasis Gold within a managed export program—specifications confirmed before contracting, with early-season availability. 

 At Oasis Gold, we position Wadi Dates as a managed export product for importers and distributors who require operational stability, extended shelf life, and consistent control over moisture and sugar levels. 

Wadi Dates are not positioned as a substitute for Medjool or Shahdi; rather, they are an independent variety with clearly defined commercial functionality within professional supply chains. 

What Makes Wadi Dates Different?

Wadi Dates stand apart from other semi-dry Egyptian dates due to several natural characteristics:

  • Relatively smaller size
  • Lower moisture level compared to most semi-dry dates
  • Reduced sugar content, suitable for specific consumer segments
  • High resistance to long-term storage conditions
  • A naturally occurring yellow ring at the crown of the fruit, serving as a unique visual identifier

These features make Wadi Dates well-suited for markets that prefer balanced, lighter dates for both nutritional preferences and operational handling. 

Early Harvest Season with Limited Availability

Wadi Dates are characterized by an exceptionally early ripening and harvest season compared to other Egyptian date varieties. As a result, available quantities are typically exhausted earlier in the season, which makes early contracting especially important. This also supports importers seeking early market entry and stable supply ahead of peak seasonal demand.

Pure Growing Environment Reflecting the Nature of the Variety

Wadi Dates are cultivated in a clean desert environment with naturally harsh conditions that directly shape their final characteristics.
This environment is defined by:

Strong desert sunlight supporting controlled fruit maturation

Limited and clean water resources

Deep soils that contribute to firmer texture and reduced moisture

These natural factors give Wadi Dates their balanced profile, light flavor, and enhanced stability during storage and transport. 

Processing That Preserves Natural Characteristics

Wadi Dates are handled using the same methodology applied to Medjool and Shahdi dates, with a focus on preserving their natural properties:

  • Professional manual sorting
  • Dry cleaning without water washing
  • No processes that increase moisture content
  • Preservation of the fruit’s natural structure

This approach supports long shelf life and reduces operational risks during export and distribution. 

Operational Efficiency for Long-Term Supply Programs

Wadi Dates are particularly suitable for commercial programs that require: 

  • Extended storage capability
  • Long-distance shipping
  • Slower inventory turnover
  • Precise control over sugar and moisture levels

For these reasons, Wadi Dates are successfully used in: 

  • Specialized wholesale markets
  • Food distribution programs
  • Markets focused on lower-sugar date options
  • Certain food applications requiring higher stability
