05 · Product Identity
What Is Fresh Thai Yardlong Bean?
Yardlong bean is a pod vegetable in the legume family. Its scientific name is Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis, and the marketable part is the whole immature edible pod.
International buyers may also know it as long bean, Thai long bean, Chinese long bean, asparagus bean or snake bean. “Yardlong bean” provides clearer product identity than “green bean” or “string bean,” which can refer to common beans in the genus Phaseolus.
Commercial Name
Fresh Thai Yardlong Bean / Thai Long Bean.
Scientific Identity
Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis.
Fresh Product Scope
Whole fresh or chilled immature pods; frozen, dried, canned and seed products are excluded.

Technical reference: published fresh-bean guidance commonly uses approximately 5–7.5°C and high relative humidity as a starting reference, but yardlong beans can be chilling-sensitive. The actual temperature, packaging and commercial-life program must be validated for the selected lot and route and is not guaranteed by this reference.
07 · Export Packaging & Packing Options
Protect Long Pods Through the Supply Chain
Packing should limit moisture loss and physical damage while avoiding harmful condensation. Pod length, ventilation, distribution channel and transport duration must be considered together.
Loose / Bulk Packing
Suitable food-grade inner packing and ventilated export cartons can be reviewed for wholesale distribution.
Foodservice Packs
Unit weight, preparation, liner or perforated bag and packs per carton are confirmed for the buyer program.
Retail-Ready Packs
Buyer-approved bags, labels, barcodes and destination-language information may be coordinated.
Packaging requirement: the format must protect pods from bending and compression and remain compatible with the agreed moisture and cold-chain program.

13 · Buyer-Focused FAQ
Questions About Buying Fresh Thai Yardlong Beans
Key product, packing, logistics and compliance questions to resolve before quotation and shipment planning.
What is the difference between yardlong beans and ordinary green beans?
Yardlong bean is Vigna unguiculata subsp. sesquipedalis and is sold as a long, slender immature pod. Green bean often refers to common beans in the genus Phaseolus, so buyers should confirm the commercial and botanical identity.
Which yardlong bean variety does ThaiMahapoke supply?
ThaiMahapoke supplies Khiao Dok Plus, a commercial green-podded Thai yardlong bean variety.
Is Khiao Dok Plus available year-round?
Yes. Khiao Dok Plus yardlong beans are available in commercial quantities throughout the year, subject to weather, the requested grade, weekly supply conditions and final order confirmation.
Can buyers specify pod length and diameter?
Yes. Buyers should provide their preferred length and diameter ranges and tolerances. ThaiMahapoke confirms the available selection before quotation.
Are washed, unwashed, trimmed or untrimmed options available?
These preparation options can be reviewed according to the buyer's handling and destination requirements. The final preparation method is confirmed for the selected order.
What packaging is available?
Possible formats include loose bulk, food-service packs, retail-ready packs and suitable ventilated export cartons. Final net weight, pack count, carton dimensions and pallet configuration are confirmed for the order.
What is the MOQ?
MOQ depends on grade, sorting tolerance, preparation, packaging, destination and shipment method. It is provided after ThaiMahapoke reviews the complete RFQ.
Can ThaiMahapoke quote FOB or CIF?
FOB or CIF may be quoted where operationally available. Buyers should provide the destination country and named port or airport so the correct basis can be assessed.
Should fresh yardlong beans be shipped by air or sea?
Airfreight is generally more suitable for distant and time-sensitive shipments. Sea freight is considered only when packed product life, cold-chain performance and total transit time support the required arrival condition.
What is the storage temperature and shelf life?
Published fresh-bean guidance provides general references, but yardlong beans can be sensitive to chilling and moisture loss. The suitable program and expected commercial life depend on cultivar, harvest condition, packaging and route and are confirmed for the shipment.
Can pesticide-residue testing be arranged?
Laboratory testing may be coordinated when requested and confirmed for the relevant lot. Buyers should identify the destination market, applicable MRLs, required test scope and any buyer-specific residue standard.
Can a phytosanitary certificate be provided?
Phytosanitary inspection and documentation may be coordinated when required and when the product is eligible for the destination. Current requirements must be verified for the country and shipment before confirmation.
