H-E-B Bella Mandarins

Our H-E-B Bella Mandarins offer the perfect, honey-sweet citrus flavor because they stay on the tree longer and are picked at the peak of ripeness. They are easy to peel, small in size and seedless, making them the perfect snack to take on-the-go. Look for them in the produce department. Available in a 3 lb. or 5 lb. bag.

Fresh mandarin oranges invigorate your recipes with their juicy, honey-sweet citrus flavor. See Ways to Enjoy Bella Mandarins

 

Meet the Grower

 
Growers inspecting freshly picked mandarins

"We've been working with the Britz family from California for over 20 years to bring you the best tasting fruit. They’re a family owned business with a high standard for quality." –Brian Boutin, H-E-B Produce Buyer

There's a long history of the Britz family growing citrus in the valley, starting with Albert back in the 1930s, then passed down to Martin, and now his son Brett.

"Only the best mandarins make it into a Bella bag" –Brett Britz, SunWest Fruit Company

Truck loaded with mandarins driving through Tivy Valley Ranch

"Tivy Valley Ranch in California, which is the best place in the world to grow citrus, it's got warm days and cool nights allowing the fruit to ripen to the perfect sweet flavor." –Brian Boutin, H-E-B Produce Buyer

The climate enriches the fruit—they are grown through winter and ready to pick in the spring.

H-E-B Bella Mandarins stay on the tree longer before being picked—giving them a sweeter flavor.

"We bring the taste of California sunshine right to Texas!" –Martin Britz, SunWest Fruit Company
