Fresh Fruit Labeling
Manual
Gift or
Bulk Fruit
Gift packs shipped directly to consumers
are considered to be retail containers. The labeling requirements are the
same as for retail packs of produce described above and are not required
to have post harvest pesticide information.
Bulk shipping containers, such as 42 lb.
or 21 lb. cartons, are considered retail packs if they are sold by the
carton at retail. All the labeling requirements described for retail packs
of produce must then be met. When such a bulk container has a principal
display panel of more than 400 square inches, the minimum type of size for
the net weight must be at least 1/2" in height.
