Quality Practices
A Perfected Practice

Perfected PracticeOver 30 Years of Handling Fragile Fruits!

We’ve built our business around serving our customers and our goal to remain on the cutting edge was made with them in mind. We don’t innovate to innovate, we innovate to improve our customers’ experience.  And, we are happy to host tours of our facility upon request.

Here is how we do it:

  • Harvesting in pick totes minimizes bruising and assures optimum maturity, ripeness and taste
  • Fruit Patch packs EVERY piece of fruit by hand, minimizing the potential for damage
  • Our experienced field staff evaluates all fields before harvesting, analyzing quality and size. Each lot is thoroughly tested upon arrival and all characteristics – sugar content, color, and defects, if any – are entered into our internal quality control database
  • Our efficient and experienced quality control team constantly monitors all fruit through the entire process while maintaining a database on each lot of fruit
  • Forced air cooling more quickly cools our fruit which ensures that tree-ripened fruit maintains that just-picked freshness. And, each lot is once again tested after cooling and carefully monitored until shipping
