Commercial storage guidance for fresh whole pineapples at the color-break stage (general recommendation). Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

85-95%

Shelf Life

14-20 days

Packaging

Ventilated boxes or bags to maintain humidity and prevent moisture buildup

Chilling injury such as internal browning shows up only after fruit are moved out of cold storage, so cold-held fruit can look sound and then deteriorate within days. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
