About us
We Source. We Manage. We Deliver.
The Fruit Co. (Import & Export) Ltd. is a specialist fruit and vegetable sourcing company focused on connecting customers with the world’s leading growers.
Rather than simply buying and selling produce, we build long-term partnerships with carefully selected farms and producer groups throughout Latin America and Europe, enabling our customers to benefit from reliable supply, competitive pricing and exceptional quality.
Our experienced team manages every stage of the procurement process, including supplier selection, crop planning, quality control, logistics, customs clearance and final delivery.
We understand that every customer has different requirements, which is why we tailor sourcing programmes to suit your business, whether you’re importing one container or supplying multiple retail distribution centres.
By working directly with growers wherever possible, we reduce unnecessary costs, improve traceability and create stronger relationships throughout the supply chain.
