Fruit reception standards at the plant for processing and export

Avocados must be packed uniform in color and size with the same varieties. Superficial damages affecting a maximum of 10% of the fruit are allowed, caused by diseases, scratches or mechanical damage, as long as the fruits retain their essential characteristics intact in shape, flavor and smell of the avocado and its variety, firm consistency. The fruit must be free of dirt or any other foreign object.

Nutritional value:

Raw avocado is 73% water, 15% fat, 9% carbohydrates and 2% protein. A 100-gram reference amount provides 160 calories and is rich (29% or more of the daily value) in several B vitamins and vitamin K, with moderate content (10-19% dv) of vitamin C, vitamin E and potassium.

Typical avocado:

  • About 75% of an avocado's energy comes from fat, most of which (67% of total fat) is monounsaturated fat like oleic acid.
  • Other predominant fats include palmitic acid and linoleic acid.
  • The saturated fat content amounts to 14% of total fats.

Marketing tips:

  • Keep them refrigerated at all times to improve shelf life, 5° to 7° C is the ideal temperature.
  • Store in dry conditions, as humidity will accelerate decomposition and mold problems.
  • Do not place near ethylene-producing fruits in storage.
