Please ship onions in a cardboard box with good protection (wrap with newspapers) and ventilation. Do not put onions in a plastic bag, which promotes decay.

Send by 3-day or earlier delivery shipment. If we receive the sample on Thursday or Friday, the result will be sent the next week, within 3 work days.
