In 2019, the group achieved sales worth one thousand million euro marketing more than 750,000 tons of fruits and vegetables, thanks to an extensive network of more than 1,500 suppliers carefully selected from the main production areas in the world.

The Group manages the entire process of fresh fruits and vegetables: supply, shipping, ripening, distribution, and marketing.

The attention to the quality of the products is the cornerstone of the Group's philosophy, which allowed it to create the F.lli Orsero brand; thanks to the management and control of the entire sector: from production to arrival at the point of sale.

The brand is used to market bananas, pineapples, apples, pears, and a full range of exotic fruits and vegetables.

Recently, F.lli Orsero has also launched a new line of chopped fruit, handcrafted and ready to eat, and a rich range of fresh juices and smoothies, made using HPP technology.
