02 / SUPPLY
Supply you can plan around
Erratic supply breaks buying programs. We work with growers across more than one growing zone, so a single storm does not empty your order. You get a harvest calendar ahead of the season, a live availability list during it, and a heads-up when a crop is running short instead of a surprise on the invoice. Standing orders are welcome, and we hold capacity for repeat accounts.

03 / COLD CHAIN
Cold chain from packhouse to port
Tropical produce is unforgiving once the temperature slips. Product is cooled soon after harvest, held at the right storage temperature for each crop, and loaded into pre-cooled reefer containers. We log temperatures through each handoff so you can see the chain held. [PLACEHOLDER: name specific cold storage facilities and reefer logistics partners].

04 / GRADING
Graded against the spec sheet
You tell us the size count, ripeness stage, and pack format your buyers expect, and we pack to it. Every lot is sorted for size, color, and defects before it leaves the packhouse. We hold to a written spec sheet per customer, so the box that arrives matches the one you sold. Reject criteria are agreed up front, in writing.
