From the start of the Chilean cherry season in the Chinese market until now, an estimated 50,000 boxes (5kg per box) have been air-freighted to China. The first air-freight cherries of the season mostly came from production areas in central and north Chile. And the most dominant cherry varieties were the early-season Royal Dawn, Brooks, and Santina.
The cherries that arrived first on the market did not yet have the optimum flavor and firmness because they are harvested very early in the season.
