Discover Colombia

Two harvests. Two oceans. One exceptional origin.

Why Colombia

Grown at elevations above the Cauca River, these premium Hass avocados offer excellent eating quality and seamless distribution to markets across both oceans.

Great Eating QualityThe ideal mix of temperature, sunlight, rich soil, and ample rainfall gives the Colombian-grown avocado its creamy, rich flavor and a soft, velvety texture when fully ripened.
Growing RegionGrown in rich volcanic soil high in the Andes, Colombian avocados have pebbly skin that darkens when ripe, with a mildly nutty taste.
Access to MarketsPerched at the top of South America, Colombia has shipping ports on both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, with easy access to major global markets and well-established logistics.
