Oranges

Sweet, easy-to-peel, and packed with Vitamin C — these Growers Pride oranges are selected at peak ripeness to guarantee the juicy, fragrant flesh and clean sweet flavour that makes a fresh orange one of the best natural daily habits.

Nutritional Highlights

• Vitamin C — One medium orange (130g) provides approximately 70mg of Vitamin C — nearly 100% of the adult daily reference intake in a single fruit. Vitamin C supports immune function, collagen synthesis, and iron absorption.
• Hesperidin & Flavonoids — The white pith is rich in hesperidin, a citrus bioflavonoid associated with cardiovascular health and anti-inflammatory properties; don't discard it all.
• 1 of Your 5 a Day — One medium orange counts as one portion. Note: a glass of orange juice (unsqueezed) counts as a maximum of one portion per day regardless of volume.
• Dietary Fibre — The whole fruit provides more fibre than juice; most of the fibre sits in the segments and pith.

Varieties

Growers Pride sources the best available variety by season: Navels (October–April) for seedless, easy-peel convenience; Valencias (April–October) for higher juice yield and intense flavour; Blood Oranges when seasonally available for their stunning ruby flesh and raspberry-citrus flavour profile.

Recipe Ideas

Fresh: segment and eat with a pinch of cinnamon. Juice: blend with carrot and ginger for a morning immunity shot. Cooking: orange zest in olive oil cake, Seville orange marmalade, and duck à l'orange. Segment into salads with fennel, olive oil, and black olives for a Sicilian-style salad.

How to Store

Store at room temperature for up to 1 week. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks. Do not wrap in plastic — allow airflow. Freshly squeezed juice: consume within 24 hours for maximum Vitamin C content.
