Elevate your offerings with the refined elegance of Colombian Lorena avocados, a premium Hass-like variety, for European importers, wholesalers, and food processors. This oblong-globose superfruit (up to 14 cm long, 10 cm diameter) features light green, smooth shiny skin with abundant lenticels, enclosing creamy, nutty-flavored flesh around a medium ovoid seed—ideal for guacamole, salads, and gourmet spreads. Sourced from sustainable Andean orchards, it ensures traceable quality to meet booming EU demand for elongated, high-yield tropicals with superior creaminess and extended shelf life.

Packaging and Logistics Specifications for Scalable Operations

Packed in 10 kg boxes (L 40 cm x W 30 cm x H 25 cm) or bulk, with 36 boxes per air pallet (~360 kg net) and calibers (14–20 count) for consistent sizing in retail and processing. Year-round supply with peaks October–December optimizes availability, fully compliant with EU phytosanitary standards including residue testing and certificates for seamless imports.

Economic Value: Cost Optimization for Processors and Importers

Robust logistics minimize bruising, enhancing margins.

Incoterms & costs

  • We operate primarily under FCA / FOB – Bogotá (El Dorado).
  • International freight, insurance, duties, and last-mile are paid by the buyer (or the buyer’s forwarder).
  • If CIF–Airport is agreed, we quote freight + basic insurance to the destination airport; the importer handles customs clearance, local taxes, storage, and domestic delivery.

  • Harvest, grading, standardized packing (e.g., 192 × 2 kg per pallet), labeling, and full documentation (phytosanitary certificate, packing list, QA photos).
  • Handover to airline/forwarder in BOG according to your booking (FCA/FOB) or ours (CIF).

Returns & claims (fresh produce)

  • No physical returns due to perishable nature.

  • Resolution via replacement in the next shipment or credit note pro-rata.
  • Exclusions: mishandling after airport handover, customs delays, seasonality variances, or any cold-chain break outside our custody.

FoodsMas Marketplace role

Specific conditions may vary by producer/season and will be confirmed in each proforma.

FoodsMas facilitates seller–buyer operations, standardizes quality & documentation, and coordinates origin logistics.

Delivery window

Indicative timeline (after order confirmation & payment/proof):

  • Day 0–1: Order confirmation, capacity allocation, harvest/QA scheduling.
  • Day 1–3: Packing (pre-cooling when applicable), labeling, ICA/phytosanitary documentation.
  • Day 3–5: Handover to airline/forwarder in Bogotá and departure on the next available flight.
  • Day 5–7: Arrival at destination airport and available for pickup (CIF) or arrival per your booking (FCA/FOB).

Important

  • Window depends on airline space, documentation cut-offs, phytosanitary controls, and weekly harvest cycles.
  • Under FCA/FOB, FoodsMas guarantees origin handover within the window; international transit depends on your booking.
  • Under CIF–Airport, ETA at destination can vary with handling and customs at the receiving airport.

Best practices

  • Coordinate with your forwarder for the shortest connection and required cold-chain settings.
  • Have your customs broker/importer ready to minimize destination dwell time.
