Sri Lankan Tender Jackfruit (Polos)
Overview
Tender Jackfruit, locally known as “Polos” in Sri Lanka, is the young, unripe stage of jackfruit—valued for its meaty texture and neutral flavor. Commonly used in traditional curries and as a plant-based meat alternative, tender jackfruit has become increasingly popular in vegan and health-conscious cuisines around the world. Harvested before ripening, it is cleaned, cut, and processed for fresh or ready-to-cook export formats.
Organic & Sustainable Value
Sourced from pesticide-free, naturally grown jackfruit trees, tender jackfruit is cultivated by smallholder farmers in agroforestry systems. No artificial chemicals are used, and the crop is harvested using sustainable methods that support long-term soil health and biodiversity.
