Union means strength

Collaboration is the key to success

A large number of businesses, organizations and people take an important, even though often unknown role in the field of fruit-growing, ranging from the producers who cultivate their orchards with much diligence and commitment every day to the marketing businesses ensuring that the harvested products reach the clients and that the producers are rewarded for their work.

Together we are strong
