Ripening

Ripening Guide
Ripening

Our locations have dedicated ripening and repack rooms for tomatoes, bananas, and avocados where we sort and stage these items by color or ripeness for shipping.
If you are looking for a certain ripening stage of banana, avocado, or color of tomato, we are constantly rotating, sorting, sizing, and readying these items for shipping.

Why do we take this extra step?

Bananas, avocados, and tomatoes are harvested green and firm, then ripened to various stages before arriving at our facilities.

We further manage and sort products to ensure:

  • Consistent color, size, shape, and grade
  • More usable product straight from the case
  • Less time spent sorting and ripening on your end

Benefits to You

  • Improved product consistency
  • Reduced labor and handling requirements
  • Lower waste and shrink costs
  • Greater value with near 100% usable product upon delivery
