Sorting and grading

Product is sorted by maturity, appearance, and buyer requirement to improve shipment consistency.

Handling and processing steps are positioned around clean operations and export-oriented quality control.

Traceability

Batch references and sourcing visibility support better product accountability across supply programs.

  • Sorting by maturity and appearance
  • Carton planning for destination and fruit type
