How Pitted Dates Are Made

Our dates begin as ripe fruit harvested from date palm trees in Algeria.

The Process:

1. Harvest & Cleaning – Dates are picked at peak ripeness and thoroughly cleaned.

2. Softening (If Needed) – Light steaming may be used to preserve texture and reduce tearing.

3. Pitting – Specialized machinery gently removes the hard inner pit while keeping the fruit whole.

4. Quality Inspection – Dates are visually checked to ensure pit-free perfection.

5. Sorting & Packaging – Carefully sorted and hand packaged on dedicated Gerbs equipment in Johnston, RI.

This process preserves the date’s natural texture, flavor, and nutritional value.
