Details about Coconut Water

Also known as Young Coconut Water, Coconut Liquid

Coconut water contains a similar electrolyte balance to human blood, which makes it easily absorbed into the body, helping replenish and rehydrate the body after physical exertion or in the case of an illness that causes dehydration. Coconuts could vary from 'Malabar', 'Nam WAN', or 'Fiji Dwarf' with the colour ranging from green, yellow, brown or orange. Both sweetened and unsweetened flavors of this beverage are available, based on the desired taste.

PLU codes, which stands for Price Look-Up codes, are 4 or 5-digit numbers used in grocery stores and supermarkets to identify fresh produce items.

  • 4-digit codes are for conventionally grown produce
  • 5-digit codes starting with 9 indicate organic produce
  • 5-digit codes starting with 8 were originally intended for GMO produce, but are rarely used

PLU codes streamline checkout processes, improve inventory management, and provide consistency across different stores.

The system was developed by the International Federation for Produce Standards (IFPS)
