We think you'll agree- our Dates are in a class of their own.

Dates differ in taste, size, shape, color and texture but the best dessert dates are produced in

the oasis of El Jerrid, Tunisia, on the edge of the Sahara.

The oasis's macro-climatic conditions,

with the date palm's top under a dry tropical sun and its roots in cool pure water, produce a fruit

of superb quality. The date tree population in Tunisia nears 3 million.

Dates are grown mainly around the oasis of Tozeur, Kebili and Tamerza. These "Date Gardens" can be traditional, cultivating many varieties of dates, or they can be modern, specializing the Deglet

Nour variety. Since 1970, Tunisia is the world's leading date producer.

The country has taken precautions to help protect the date tree population and also to continue the date tree population prospers.
