Lime Obsession: The Limery’s Zesty Empire from Hawke’s Bay to the Tropics

NZ-Grown Limes: Pure Hawke’s Bay Goodness

The Limery’s New Zealand-grown limes are pesticide-free, seedless, and grown with care in the subtropical climate of Hawke’s Bay. With a focus on sustainability and flavour, these limes are prized by restaurants, bars, and foodservice operations across the country.

And here’s the seasonal scoop:
New Zealand’s lime season runs from March to August, with peak flavour between March and May. That’s when the fruit is at its juiciest, most aromatic, and ready to elevate everything from seafood to sorbet in your commercial kitchen.

Imported Limes: Tropical Consistency for Foodservice

To keep the lime love flowing year-round, The Limery also imports limes from Vietnam. These tropical limes offer consistent supply and vibrant flavour, making them ideal for high-volume foodservice use. Whether you need a zesty garnish, a citrus punch in your dish, or a reliable lime for batch prep, these imports deliver.

Why The Limery Limes Are a Must-Have for Foodservice

  • Locally grown in NZ with over 7,000 trees in Hawke’s Bay
  • Pesticide-free and seedless for clean, bold flavour
  • Imported options from Vietnam for year-round availability
  • Loved by chefs, bartenders, and foodservice buyers for their versatility and punch
  • Certified and sustainable, with a strong environmental ethos
