Westfalia Fruit to boost Mozambique’s avocado industry with packhouse expansion

MOZAMBIQUE- Westfalia Fruit, a global leader in avocado production and distribution, has unveiled ambitious plans for a packhouse expansion in Mozambique.

This strategic move comes as a response to the increasing demand for avocados and aims to further solidify the company’s dedication to community development and collaboration within the region, ultimately enhancing Mozambique’s burgeoning avocado industry.

The expansion project is set to significantly enhance operational efficiency, with a primary focus on optimizing the crucial picking and packing phases of avocado processing.

By expanding its packhouse infrastructure, Westfalia Fruit aims to streamline its production processes, ensuring the delivery of high-quality avocados to both local and international markets.

In a recent statement, Westfalia Fruit expressed its gratitude to stakeholders, partners, and the diligent community of growers who have played an integral role in the company’s success.

“As Westfalia Fruit embarks on this ambitious journey of growth and progress, the company extends its sincere appreciation to all our stakeholders, partners, and the diligent community of growers who have played a pivotal role in shaping our success,” the company said in a statement.

The company’s commitment to community development and sustainability is at the forefront of this expansion.

The project not only underscores Westfalia Fruit’s dedication to Mozambique’s avocado sector but also signifies a significant step towards strengthening the local economy and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.

By creating jobs and fostering collaboration with local growers, Westfalia Fruit is actively contributing to the socio-economic development of the region.

With the completion of the expansion project anticipated in February 2024, Westfalia Fruit remains enthusiastic about its ongoing contributions to Mozambique’s flourishing avocado industry.

The company firmly believes that the commitment to excellence will result in mutually beneficial outcomes for all stakeholders involved.

Through the increased production capacity and improved efficiency, Westfalia Fruit also seeks to meet the rising demand for avocados while maintaining the highest standards of quality.

The expansion of the packhouse is expected to have a ripple effect on the entire avocado supply chain in Mozambique.

Local growers and farmers will benefit from enhanced infrastructure and access to global markets, which will, in turn, stimulate economic growth and promote sustainable agricultural practices in the region.

Earlier this year, the company launched its first avocado ripening facility in India aiming to supply avocados that are ready to eat to consumers in Mumbai and the neighbouring regions.
