GOING SHOPPING?
KNOW YOUR SUMO CITRUS

Sumo Citrus stands out for its weird looks, bumpy skin, and Top Knot™. Through our passion, innovation, and ambitious standards, we deliver a legendary taste that fans ask for by name.

Check out our shopping guide to be prepared when you are stocking up this season.

IT'S SEASONAL

Sumo Citrus is only available from January through April. Our expert growers pamper every piece of fruit to deliver the ultimate citrus experience to you each season. Locate the store nearest you on our “Find a Store” page and stock up now!

IT'S A LITTLE SQUISHY

Sumo Citrus may feel a little squishy when you pick it up but don’t worry – this doesn’t mean that the fruit is over or under-ripe. That squishiness is exactly what makes Sumo Citrus so easy to peel, revealing a no-mess, deliciously juicy snack like no other.

IT COMES IN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES

While every Sumo Citrus is enormously delicious in taste, the fruit comes in all shapes and sizes. We test each Sumo Citrus for maximum sweetness and only the fruit that meets our high size and taste standards make it into stores.

IT'S A LITTLE BUMPY

Sumo Citrus may look a little weird with its bumpy skin, but don’t judge a fruit by its peel. We celebrate the perfectly imperfect exterior that protects the incredibly sweet, seedless, delicate fruit within. Handle your Sumo Citrus with care and savor every bite!

IT HAS A “TOP KNOT”

Sumo Citrus is a naturally non-GMO hybrid mandarin that has a signature Top Knot – it’s part of the charm of this citrus celebrity! Just know that the little bump on the top of the fruit may be more prominent on some Sumo Citrus than on others.

IT STANDS OUT IN STORES

There is only one Sumo Citrus. To make sure you have the real deal, look for the brightly colored bin that reflects our Japanese heritage and the iconic purple Sumo Citrus sticker on the fruit. Discover the legendary taste for yourself this season!
