Strong business ties in Spain help improve citrus supply

Citrus fruits take up an important place in the European supermarkets produce category. The largest citrus fruit producers in Europe come from the sunny fields in Spain, which is no surprise as the country sees around 300 days of sun per year. 

"The distinctive weather conditions give the fruits an exceptional taste and quality," Don Limon told.

Amefruits is Don Limon's main supplier partner for Spanish citrus. Founded in 2004, Amefruits says that they strictly control the product to ensure quality, using on-field controls and certification programs such as the Global G.A.P., IFS and Applus. 

"We emphasize and practice good food safety and environmental practices, by using less chemicals and maintain high standard of cleanliness in our production and warehouse facilities."

Roberto Esposito, product manager for citrus at Don Limon, tells that they have established a strong business relationship with Amefruits from Spain. 

"Over the last 10 years, this business relationship has grown stronger. This connection provides Don Limon's customers high quality Lemons, Mandarins and Oranges from Alicante almost all year round at reasonable prices and allows us to commit to all the individual needs of the customers under our brand," the release concluded.
