OUR PROCESS
PACKAGING:
An effective traceability system is in place which assists with identifying each box of fruit. The system keeps track of the date of picking and packing, the farm and patch the fruit is grown and the person who picked and packed the fruit. This ensures the quality of each box is maintained and any issues with the fruit can be easily identified and rectified – therefore the customer can be confident that the fruit being purchased will be to their standards.
The company is HACCP Accredited and follow strict QA guidelines, ensuring the fruit is grown and packed to the highest of quality in the most safe and professional manner.
PRE-COOLING:
All grapes are cooled immediately after being picked in high humidity cool rooms. This ensures the fruit is cooled down to the ideal temperature in the quickest amount of time, enabling the fruit to stay fresh and store longer. All cool rooms are computer linked and monitored to ensure the fruit is kept at the optimum temperature.
The Distribution Centre is equipped with loading docks for container and trailer loading, as well as state of the art cool storage facilities and a number of large warehouses for storage.
EXPORTING:
We are DAFF accredited and have the facilities to conduct on farm fruit inspections in our warehouse; we also comply with all protocols which allows us to export to all countries.
Once the fruit is inspected, it is loaded directly into the container from the cool storage facilities, this ensures that the fruit remains at optimum temperature and reduces the number of times the boxes are handled before they reach the customer.
