Who are we

Sun-Drenched Buraidah Groves

Iris Dadels is a Dutch company with a genuine connection to the people who grow our dates. We work directly with multi-generational farming families in Buraidah — the date capital of the world — in Saudi Arabia's Qassim region. Every batch comes with full harvest transparency, straight from their palms to your warehouse.

Sustainable Cultivation

Grown the way it's always been done

Our partner groves sit in ancient desert oases, watered by natural underground springs that have sustained date palms for centuries. Every date is hand-harvested at peak maturity and unpasteurized — so the natural caramel depth and richness of a true Buraidah date arrives intact.

By working directly with the farmers we know by name, we cut out the middlemen — ensuring fair compensation for the growers and exceptional quality for Dutch specialty food buyers, boutique retailers, and commercial kitchens.

From Buraidah with Love

Before the sun clears the rooftops of Buraidah, Alsuheiman is already among the trees.

His family has worked this grove for four generations — his great-grandfather planted the first palms, dug the first well, and built something that a hundred years later still bears fruit. Alsuheiman knows every tree by heart: the Sukkari palms with their honeyed, melt-on-the-tongue sweetness, the tall dark-fruited Ajwa his mother called blessed.

"The land remembers who comes back and who doesn't."

That knowledge, that dedication, and that patience are what make the difference between an ordinary date and an extraordinary one. The date that leaves Alsuheiman's grove at exactly the right moment of ripeness is the one that arrives at your door — no middlemen, no compromises.

Just four generations of knowing exactly what good looks like.
