Request your sample of 'Doyenne du Comice'

Doyenné du Comice is also known as the King of Pears. The pear is very suitable as a hand pear and is used in a variety of ways such as with a cheeseboard, through a salad or as a dessert. The taste is fresh-sweet and this juicy pear has a rich aroma. Contact your Eosta accountmanager for a sample and all details regarding packaging and availability. 

Meet Robert, one of the growers of our Dutch organic pears. Robert: "Since I have been working organic, I see nature coming back to my orchard. There are much more earwigs and ladybugs, who control the lice. After two years without pesticides I also see the dragonflies, butterflies and honey bees increase in numbers. My ambition is to grow organic apples and pears of high quality, but also in large quantity. I have 18 hectares of myself and I also pack the apples for four other organic growers. I think organic should gain a serious market share. At the moment, 3% of all food in the Netherlands is organic and that is way too little. Organic will have to prove itself more and demonstrate its added value. I want to work at that."

If necessary, the apples and pears are stored in state-of-the-art cold storage with DCS storage. This goes one step further than the familiar ULO storage and ensures even better preservation of firmness and shelf life.

Limes

Moroccan limes provide breathing space in a tight organic lime market

Demand for organic fruit continues to grow, and organic limes are no exception. Their popularity is being driven partly by increasing demand for cocktails, mocktails and homemade lemonades, as well as their wider use in salads, curries and other dishes. Consumers are also increasingly choosing citrus grown without synthetic pesticides and without post-harvest fungicide treatment.

Kivinaki

Kivinaki ready for the new Organic Raingrown Oranges season

Ahead of the new organic orange season, our sourcing team visited Kivinaki in Peru. Over the past four years, we have built a successful export programme with this growers’ co-operative. During the visit, we worked together to prepare for the coming months.

Pineapple

Healthy soil makes organic pineapples more resilient

In Costa Rica, too, the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent. Heavy rainfall, in particular, is making organic pineapple cultivation more challenging and requires growers to be adaptable.
