Anecoop is strengthening its organization by bringing in Marfruit as a new partner. Based in La Marina de Elche, the company manages 2,000 hectares of its own production across the Valencia region, Murcia, and Castile-La Mancha.
With this expansion, Anecoop has increased its supply by 50,000 tons of various fresh fruits and vegetables. Notably, Marfruit produces nearly 30,000 tons of melons, including varieties like Piel de Sapo, Amarillo, Galia, and, starting this season, Cantaloupe. It also produces over 6,000 tons of broccoli in Elche and around 5,000 tons of pomegranates, including the Mollar de Elche variety (the only one worldwide with PDO status), as well as the Wonderful and Bigful varieties. The company's portfolio also features artichokes, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, and decorative pumpkins.
