Our Hass avocado plantation in Kenya and the commercial growers we work with in East Africa

We own a commercial Hass plantation in Kenya's Rift Valley, where volcanic soils, altitude and a steady climate suit the crop, and work with commercial growers across East Africa. Our own teams manage agronomy, harvest, packing and export, so buyers deal with one accountable grower and exporter.

How we grow

Agronomy, harvest and packing

VarietiesHass as the export flagship, with Green skin Fuerte and Pinkerton earlier in the season.

Agroforestry and soilOur plantation is run under an agroforestry approach with cover and shade, composting and careful water use.

MaturityDry matter is tested block by block before harvest against the regulator's minimum thresholds and the buyer's requirement.

Harvest and packingOur own harvest crews, same day movement to the packhouse, grading and packing under our programme, and cold storage before loading.

Every grade usedFruit that does not meet fresh export grade goes to avocado oil, so growers are paid for the whole crop.

PeopleTrained harvest and packhouse teams, with social practice standards applied across our sites.
