OUR PACKHOUSE

At Attar Fruit we not only grow the finest quality fruit, but take pride in packing and exporting it too. Our full end-to-end service means that we can guarantee the freshest, highest-quality, and best tasting fruit in the marketplace.

Every year we process millions of fresh citrus fruits in our packhouses. Post-harvest cold chain management begins from the moment the fruit is picked from the tree. It is the key objective of management to ensure the fruit is collected swiftly from the orchard and delivered for grading and packing within a short period.

By implementing state-of-the-art equipment and expertise, the fruit is sorted, graded and packed according to specific market or customer specifications. All packaging carries the relevant information to ensure that the fruit can be traced back to its origin. The fruit then enters the cold chain to be optimally managed through to its destination.

Full product traceability starts in the orchard, where we have systems in place that can trace every fruit from tree to table, and our dedicated and highly qualified Quality Assurance Team are present at the packing of all products.
