What we operate

Six capabilities that carry your programme

01

Own production & contract growers

Company farms in Cartago plus a network of audited contract growers give us volume flexibility without losing control of the standard.

02

Nursery & propagation

Our own nursery supplies certified seedlings, which means uniform plants and a predictable harvest calendar.

03

Washing, grading & packing

Mechanical washing, calibre grading and manual inspection lines configured per crop and per customer specification.

04

Cold chain

Pre-cooling and temperature-controlled storage keep produce within specification from the field to the container door.

05

Export logistics

Documentation, phytosanitary handling, container loading and coordination with freight forwarders for sea and air shipments.

06

Retail programmes

Continuous weekly supply for supermarket chains, including private-label packaging and promotional formats.

From harvest to wash line

Carrots move straight from the field into selection and packing

Process

The route every crop follows

The same seven stages apply whether we are packing a mixed pallet or a full container.

01

Soil Preparation

Volcanic highland soil is analysed, amended and shaped before every cycle.

02

Planting

Certified seed and our own nursery seedlings go into programmed sowing calendars.

03

Growth & Care

Agronomists monitor irrigation, nutrition and integrated pest management weekly.

04

Harvest

Crops are cut at optimal maturity by trained crews and moved out of the field fast.

05

Washing & Sorting

Produce is washed, graded by calibre and inspected against customer specifications.

06

Cold Storage

Pre-cooling and temperature-controlled rooms lock in freshness within hours.

07

Packing & Export

Orders are packed to format, documented, sealed and dispatched with full traceability.

Harvest

Carrot harvest and collection in the field

From the soil to the transport crate: crews pull, trim and stage carrots at the field edge so the produce reaches the wash line within hours.

Cold storage

Refrigerated rooms that hold the field's freshness

Produce is pre-cooled within hours of harvest and staged on pallets inside temperature- and humidity-controlled rooms. Continuous monitoring, dedicated evaporators and strict rotation keep every crate within specification until the reefer container is sealed.

Logistics

Documented, loaded and dispatched on schedule

We handle phytosanitary documentation, container loading and coordination with freight forwarders for sea and air shipments, including retail programmes with fixed weekly volumes and private-label packaging.
