NEW PACKING PLANT

It doesn’t make sense to grow the best quality if you can’t pack them. That’s why we invested in a new, 135,000 sq. ft. state of the art computerized packing plant to sort the best colour, taste and eliminate internal/external defects.

Some of the innovations you will find at our facility are:

Integrated storage facility to control quality air/temperature/inventory control to ensure quality is maintained until packed
Automated Pre-Sorter to meet retailer standards with dynamic sorting capabilities
Waxer/Dryer removes all debris, polishes and wax to the exact standard for each variety and improve shelf life
Automated Weigher & Bag Fillers to ensure apple combinations to achieve targeted weight specifications, while gently handling apples and applying traceability code
Automatic Tray Fillers to ensure consistent presentation to customers
Computerized Printing and Labeling with Traceability code is applied to each box containing all information all the way to block that the apples were harvested

Automatic Palletizer ensures loads are secure and product is received with the highest quality
