Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for fresh figs (e.g. 'Black Mission', 'Calimyrna'). Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Ripe fresh figs are soft, bruise easily and are highly perishable, so they need prompt forced-air cooling and an unbroken cold chain to limit decay. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
