Global Banana Importer
Allfresch is primarily a global banana importer. We specialise in developing close partnerships and commercial agreements with producers in Latin and South America, supplying retail and wholesale customers around the world.
Today, 70% of our business is achieved by importing and exporting conventional, organic, and Fairtrade bananas. Our vertically integrated business model ensures that we can offer our customers a dedicated and focused supply programme all year round.
Global Banana Importer
We currently import green bananas from Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Ecuador. We offer year-round supply programmes tailored to customer requirements.
Mexican Banana Importer
A substantial proportion of organic and organic Fairtrade bananas imported to the UK, Europe, Asia and Australasia are from our trusted partners, Coliman.
The first Mexican grower to obtain organic Fairtrade certification for their bananas, Coliman has created a pioneering and sustainable business model that is both commercially successful and has also had a significant social impact on the local communities.
With a 300-hectare organic banana farm and state-of-the-art packing house, Coliman is our most significant and stable producer in Mexico!
Together, we provide a stable and reliable supply of premium-quality, organic, and Fairtrade Mexican bananas to customers across the UK and Europe throughout the year.
Ecuadorian Bananas
In addition to Mexico, we also offer premium Ecuadorian bananas under our company brand – Amorita. Amorita, which means ‘little love’ is a high quality conventional, organic, organic Fairtrade banana brand.
Over the years, we have worked closely with our producers to build a long-term and sustainable business model, which means that we can provide customers with a year-round supply of high-quality fruit.
We currently work with established and reputable producers in the provinces of Los Rios, Guayas and El Oro.
Dominican Republic Bananas
Our bananas are sourced from the Dominican Republic and offer customers an alternate supply of organic and organic Fairtrade bananas.
Over the past several years, working with our producers in the Dominican Republic, we have developed an excellent understanding of the challenges that banana producers and exporters face on the island every year.
The tropical storms sweeping over the island yearly create conditions that challenge even the most sophisticated producers. By acknowledging nature and its impact on the banana business, we can ensure a timely reaction to challenges and implement contingencies to ensure supply continuity for our customers.
With this experience and knowledge, we have expanded and implemented controls at the supply chain’s most critical stages.
Also, our team continuously looks to improve local practices and controls in the long term.
