Optimal handling and storage of our apples

At Almakúti, every apple is handled with the utmost care. A portion of our harvest is sent directly to market after picking, while the majority is carefully cooled, sorted, and packaged to meet the highest quality standards. Our modern approach ensures flexibility and minimizes our reliance on third parties.

For export, we offer full loads of apples of the same variety, quality, and size, exactly as our customers require. Whether it’s different packaging formats or strict quality specifications, we deliver tailored solutions that meet market demands. This guarantees that our apples retain their freshness and flavor from our orchards to your table.

Cooling

We make sure our apples stay fresh and flavorful for months. In our advanced ULO (Ultra Low Oxygen) cold storage rooms, oxygen levels are reduced and temperatures carefully controlled, slowing down the ripening process. As a result, apples harvested in September can still be crisp and delicious in June. Discover how our cooling technology ensures year-round top quality.
