We are passionate apple growers
Jai Estates Canada is an enterprise established by passionate apple growers. We are driven by our passion to bring the best apples to your table.
Our skill and experience has enabled us to establish a high density honeycrisp apple plantation at Prince Edward Island in Canada. This orchard has been planted using modern technology and has the potential to be highly automated in its functioning which would reduce its dependence on labour and increase efficiency while reducing the cost of producing apples resulting in higher income for the growers. We are excited about the opportunities of building a grower community on the island and bring fresh delicious apples to everyone.
We know that is the best food for you. We grow apples in India in the harshest conditions on the planet. On the slopes of the mighty Himalayas at elevations between 6000ft and 8500ft. Growing apples for over 30 years in these difficult growing conditions has empowered us to grow apples anywhere on the planet.
Time ripens the substance of a life as the seasons mellow and perfect its fruits. The best apples fall latest and keep longest.

Our Journey over the years
2016
Rise of the Phoenix
Every success is born from a failure. In 2016, Randeep, brought his longtime friend Rajeev to Prince Edward Island so show him an apple orchard that his father had invested in. That investment went sour when it was discovered that the ground realities were different from what was projected, however, Rajeev during that trip discovered that the color and quality of the apples he was seeing on the island was exceptional, especially the Honey Crisp.
He proposed a partnership to Randeep and together they established Jai Estates Canada Inc. and in a sleepy suburb of Charlottetown, they acquired a parcel of 50 acres on Jones Road
