Environment
At Avopro, we are very conscious of our environmental responsibilities.
This sense of duty to our environment informed our decision to adopt a circular economy approach in our business model.
We have embedded in our processes various solutions and technologies that are geared at protecting and improving our natural environment.
With a view to minimizing carbon footprint in our operations, our processing plant is located within the avocado farming community. This keeps the distance traveled by the fruits from the tree to the factory as short as possible.
As part of our commitment to a better environment, Avopro also partners with the local community in tree planting programs .
Committed to Taking
Positive Steps
In order to meet this commitment, we take part in a variety of initiatives designed to move our fruit safely from the trees to our customer’s plates.
Avopro kenya has supported the avocado industry in creating and using the Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) and Good Harvesting Practices (GHP) programs to ensure that food safety remains a priority in the avocado industry.
