More than 20 years
of experience
Our purpose is to develop the Colombian agricultural sector through the sustainable production of the Hass avocado and its byproducts, keeping in mind the well-being of our clients, suppliers, contributors, and other groups of interest.
Our story
It all started in the year 2000 when a group of entrepreneurs from Antioquia believed in their dream of producing and exporting the best Colombian Hass avocado in the world. We sowed our first trees on a crop field in Rionegro (Antioquia). On March 5th, 2015, we sent our first shipment and from that moment on, the dream only became bigger, day by day.
We started consolidating ourselves with the best international registries and conquering more countries’ markets each day. Today we are recognized through our quality in the local market (BPA) as well as the international one (Global GAP).
