EU Apples / B2B zone

B2B zone

European apples are not just about taste and tradition – they are a quality system where science, technology and the passion of producers are in fusion.

From orchard to export shipping, every stage is certified, inspected and fulfilled out in compliance to strict European Union standards.

The “Have an apple day! Get to know high quality apples from EU” program provides a platform for importers, distributors and trading partners from Brazil and Colombia who are looking for a stable, reliable and modern source of supply.

Why choose Europe as your partner?

The European fruit production sector is one of the most advanced agricultural industries in the world, combining the tradition of fruit growing with modern storage, logistics and marketing technologies.

Doing business with European suppliers provides tangible, measurable benefits:

Assured quality and consistency of supply – the production is operated in compliance with Integrated Production of Orchard (IPO), Global G.A.P. and HACCP principles; this ensures safety, freshness and a uniform quality standard. The apples are stored in a controlled ULO (Ultra Low Oxygen) atmosphere, which preserves firmness and flavour even after intercontinental shipping.

Stability and security of supply – Europe boasts a well-developed refrigeration and logistics infrastructure to facilitate delivery under continuous temperature control (0-2°C). Our partners can rely on steady, year-round supplies – made possible by a rich variety of apples and advanced storage technology.

Trust and experience in global exports – the producers affiliated to the Fruit Union have many years of experience in shipping to more than 40 countries. Doing business with Europe means predictability, stability and business security.

Certified and fully traceable Global GAP products – each export lot has its unique identification code for traceability from specific orchard to point of sale. The transparency of the system provides importers with full control over the delivery process.

The supply chain

From field to table

Each apple goes through seven carefully monitored stages that ensure the quality and safety of the product:

Sorting and grading – electronic systems for grading fruit by colour, defects, size and firmness.
Packaging – importer-specific packaging, sustainable materials, labels with traceability codes.
Storage – ULO / CA cold storage rooms to ensure freshness is maintained for months.
Transport – controlled cold chain, temperature monitoring, real-time route tracking.
Distribution and sales – delivery of products to retail chains, wholesalers, HORECA and e-commerce channels.

Each of these stages is inspected by independent auditors and meets ISO 22000, GlobalG.A.P., BRC, and IFS Food standards. Such transparency in the process is the foundation for trust and sustainable business with trading partners.
