On Thursday, 22 March, the first Brazilian Fuerte avocado's arrived at Jaguacy Holland in Maasdijk. Jaguacy is a Brazilian producer of Fuerte and Hass avocado's. Jaguacy Brazil have been in the avocado business since 1972 and are a market leader in Brazil. With the sales office in the Netherlands Jaguacy have strengthened their position on the European market since last year.
Ron Jongejan is very happy with the first Fuerte avocado's. "The quality is first class thanks to the good weather in Brazil. We expect to realise a growth of 40% this year compared to 2011. The first Hass avocado's we expect in week 15 and the season runs till week 40. Up to week 21 we expect to import eight to ten containers every week and from week 22 to 40 four/five containers each week."
