The fruit marketed by VISA FRUITS comes
from the best fruit-growing areas in Catalonia. The Lleida
area and the counties of El Pla d'Urgell, L'Urgell, El Segrià,
Les Garrigues and La Noguera, in particular, boast a deep-rooted
and recognised tradition of high-quality fruit production
that goes back to the first half of the 20th century.
Production in these regions is based on small
and medium-sized farms offering a high level of specialization,
expertise and technical skills. These farms produce varieties
of all types of sweet fruit known for its taste, texture,
firmness and high sugar content.
VISA FRUITS markets selected varieties
of apple and pear supplied mainly by local family-owned farms.
VISA FRUITS' main plant selects at source the finest
fruit produced by farmers integrated in PLADGOL.
VISA FRUITS' specialists liaise with producers
to decide on the best time to harvest the fruit to ensure
that the highest quality levels can be reached and to guarantee
compliance with strict presentation and size criteria and
the standards set beforehand as part of marketing policies.
At the central plant, the selected fruit goes
through a cold storage process in facilities boasting innovative
technologies.
All the stages of the process are designed
to produce a high-quality food product marketed in a variety
of formats under the VISA FRUITS and POMAGOL
& PERAGOL trademarks, well-known for many years now
in fruit markets.
