Organic avocado supply from Mexico is building well, with good volumes and availability expected over the coming months. Currently, availability is strongest in the larger calibres [14–18], while smaller calibres are expected to become more available as the season progresses.
Behind our Mexican Organic Raingrown® avocados is Avova, a family business in Michoacán that Eosta has been working with for many years.
With the European blueberry season gradually coming to an end, the first organic volumes from South America are on their way. Peru will take the lead in the coming weeks, followed by supply from our long-standing growers in Argentina.
Along the Sebou River in Morocco, Younes, Rachida and their team at Terra Citrus combine decades of citrus-growing experience with a passion for unusual varieties. The 82-hectare farm, established in 1950 and organically certified since 2015, grows an exceptional range of citrus — from limes and finger lime to yuzu, sudachi, Buddha’s Hand, Meyer lemon and kumquat.
Healthy and sustainable eating does not have to be more expensive. A new study on the Planetary Health Diet (PHD) shows that a diet with more fruit, vegetables, whole grains, legumes and nuts can even be significantly cheaper – while also offering clear health benefits.
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.
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.
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.
Average consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables in the EU rose by 1.98% in 2024 to 355.71 grams per person per day. This represents a slight improvement on 2023, but remains well below the World Health Organization’s recommended minimum of 400 grams per day. Only five EU countries meet this threshold.
The overseas citrus season is picking up, but the start was not without its challenges. In South Africa, heavy rainfall and associated operational problems caused delays in harvesting, packing and shipments. For oranges, the fact that colouring was initially lagging behind also played a part. That situation has now improved.
With Organic Raingrown Avocados, over 311 million litres of water were already saved in 2026 up to and including May. That is equivalent to the annual consumption of nearly 5,900 Europeans. A clear and tangible sustainability story that helps consumers make an informed choice at the shelf.
Upfront is now a well-known name in the Dutch food industry. The brand grew as a sports nutrition brand through supermarkets, gyms and other sales channels, and has been developing its innovative Foodstores since the end of last year.
