370 Brazilian Hass Avocado containers arrive in Europe

21 March 2018

Jaguacy Brasil is the main producer and exporter of Hass avocado in Brazil, and starts its 2018 crop by offering the fruits to the foreign market as of March/2018.

Operating jointly with Jaguacy Holland, an office that supports operations in the foreign market, JaguacyBrazil this year will increase by 40% the volume of fruit offered in the 2017 harvest.

The differential of Jaguacy is to reinforce the unique flavor and color of the Brazilian Avocado and always strengthen the relationship with its customers and partners. "Our customers and partners are increasingly looking for the Brazilian avocado, this proves the good relationship with Jaguacy and the quality of the Brazilian fruit," says Lígia Falanghe Carvalho, Director of Marketing and HR at Jaguacy Brazil.

Brazilian production of Avocado has been increasing in recent years, and Jaguacy in 2017 sent about 80% of the Brazilian exports of the fruit to the foreign market, with a volume increase of 58.79% compared to 2016, data from Abrafrutas.

A novelty in this harvest will be the availability of organic Avocado produced in Brazil.
