Partnering with La Calera to market fresh fruit in North America

San Miguel acquires equity stake in Andean Sun Produce

San Miguel and La Calera announce their strategic partnership for the commercialization of fresh fruit in North America, after San Miguel formalized the purchase of an equity stake in Andean Sun Produce, a company of the Peruvian group La Calera. This partnership is aligned with the long-term objective that both companies share: offering customers a wider range of their major products.

Through this partnership, Andean Sun Produce will sell lemons, table grapes, avocados, oranges and mandarins from four countries of origin: Peru, Argentina, Uruguay and South Africa. This means that Andean Sun Produce will commercialize 80% of total exports of Peruvian late mandarins to the United States and Canada.


The company currently has offices in Swedesboro (NJ) and Miami (FL), where its headquarters are located. Over the next few months Andean Sun Produce plans to open a new office in California to complement its presence in the East Coast.

“This partnership will allow us to be even closer to our customers, delivering a better range of products to North American consumers. Undoubtedly, having the experience of Andean Sun Produce is a differential value when it comes to meeting the needs of the North American market, which is highly relevant for San Miguel due to its scale and sophistication,” says Maximiliano D’Alessandro, Chief Marketing Officer of San Miguel.


Estuardo Masias from La Calera added: “We formed Andean Sun Produce dba GoldCup Fresh more than 10 years ago with the purpose of improving costs in the commercial operation. The partnership with San Miguel gives us exactly that, a wider range of citrus fruits with increased efficiency in the offer. We have great empathy with San Miguel, with whom we share the same long-term philosophy in this complex business.”
