Fresh fruits

Another one of our core competences is delivery of fresh Danish apples, pears and strawberries for supermarkets.

All of the fruits and berries are collected in refrigerated transporters to begin the cooling process as soon as possible. The products are immediately refrigerated upon arrival at Ørskov Frugt to keep them fresh.

Strawberries are delivered to the supermarkets within 24 hours from harvesting. Apples and pears are stored at approximately 2˚C.

The apples are sorted by size and packed in different containers before being delivered to the supermarkets. We ensure gentle treatment of the fruits during the sorting process by transporting them in specially developed waterways.

We store our apples and pears under controlled atmosphere to preserve the fresh and crispy character of Danish fruit.

In special storerooms we lower the oxygen level from a normal 21% to just 1,5%. This suspends the fruits' development without using any additives.

Our storage capacity is about 5000 tons for fresh fruits.

Every production process follows HACCP guidelines.
