Fresh Eating Apples are a Healthy Choice - providing
consumers with fresh and delicious tree fruits that
are safe and wholesome is priority one at Farmington
Fresh Fruit Company. Our role in making sure that the
fruit we supply is safe for our consumers and their
families is an important one. Here are just a few of
the priority things we do:
- We store our produce in temperature-controlled
atmospheres to maintain both quality and freshness.
- We maintain the cold chain from storage through
delivery to reduce spoilage due to excessive heat.
- We pack our fruit in a clean and healthy environment
to reduce the risk of contamination.
- We train our supervisors, managers and production
staff on the latest techniques on Food Safety and
Food Handling.
- We submit to independent third party inspections,
evaluations and grading of our Food Safety programs
and Production Facilities.
- We group varieties for maximum shelf life.
- We accurately monitor and control temperature and
humidity of trucks and shipping containers.
- We move shipping containers carefully. Rough or
excessive handling can cause damage to almost any
fresh produce. A minor bruise can promote product
decay.
