Harvesting Heritage Since 1943
As the third-generation steward of the Yildirim Apricot Orchards, I am delighted to introduce you to our world of premium dried apricots. Our 80-year old tradition is rooted in dedication, quality, and a love for the apricot that has been passed down through my family.
Yildirim Orchards spans over 10,000 acres in the fertile lands of Malatya, Turkey. With over 100,000 apricot trees nurtured meticulously by our family, we take pride in our extensive orchard as it stands as a testament to our enduring legacy and commitment to quality dried apricot production.
“ From our family’s hands to yours, we cultivate not just apricots, but a tradition of excellence that you can taste in every bite.”
