Our PACKAGING PROCESS

We carefully pack our Product to ensure high quality

Our process starts by washing the Okra and cleansing the fruit with water and organic products which enhance shelf life. The product goes through two selection stages and Okra is packed by size, color, shape, and variety.

The fruit is immediately cooled reaching an optimum temperature of 45F or 7.2C.

Our cooling facilities

In order to deliver the freshest product

As with all perishable products, reducing the maturity or respiration rate of the fruit is key for enhancing shelflife, this is obtained by reducing temperature efficiently and rapidly. For this reason FRUVEGO has invested on it's own cooling facilities, which have capacity for processing and cooling 50 pallets per day.

FRUVEGO is benefited from the fact, that all the production areas within our farms are less than 1km / .62mi away from our packing facility, meaning that our fruit is cooled at a quicker and more efficient rate.
