Coconuts should be stored in a cool place, be it the pantry, fridge or freezer because low temperatures suppress infection by micro-organisms, to which coconuts are prone. . For dried (shredded) coconut, it is best kept in an airtight container in the fridge once opened.
A package of shredded coconut can last between four and six months. If you want to keep it longer than that, especially if it’s been opened, store it in the refrigerator in a sealed, airtight container.
If you are not having a refrigerator to store opened coconut don’t worry here are some other tips..,
Put some plastic foil around it, so the bugs aren’t on it. And don’t put it in direct sunlight. Since you have no fridge, maybe search for a ‘cooler’ place (cellar, cabinet, a place where the sun never comes etc.) to put it.
Cutting the coconut pieces and put it in the cup of water and for an hour dispose the water and pour new water into that.
Fill the opened coconut with salt.Salt should preserve it.You can use it max for a week.
