POST-HARVEST SOLUTIONS DESIGNED FOR FRUIT EXPORTS

In post-harvest fruit operations, product shortages can disrupt entire packing schedules.

We work through structured distribution partnerships across the Eastern and Western Cape to ensure reliable access during critical export windows.

  • Drafting cost-effective post-harvest treatment and application plans. Optimised for cultivar, decay risk, and export requirements.

  • Detailed guidance at every stage: drenching, waxing, sanitising. Regular visits to evaluate processes and provide feedback to line and packhouse managers.

  • Degreening: monitoring temperature, RH, and ethylene. Flooder, wax, and brush system management, including calibration and topping up. Chlorination and system management: PH and ORP control.

  • Effective drenching and waxing application techniques. Fruit drying: brush bed configuration, speed, and fan optimisation. Sanitation of packhouses, cold rooms and crates.

  • Chemical recommendations tailored to market requirements. Record keeping, sampling, monitoring, and audit preparation support. Food safety guidance and runoff water decontamination.

  • Training personnel on post-harvest applications and hygiene. Ongoing feedback and reporting to packhouse managers via data systems.

  • Cost calculations of chemicals and programme optimisation to reduce waste.
