Fruit for the people

Doing business with respect for nature, that's what we believe in.
Every day we try to stimulate the consumption of fresh fruit and make it accessible to everyone, with a positive impact on people
and nature as the ultimate reward.

Food for
thought

1. Easy

Making fruit more accessible to everyone: that's what we strive for every day as a producer of cut fruit. Thanks to our wide range of bite-sized cut fruit and fruit salads, we make consumers' lives easier.

2. Healthy

Do you eat fruit regularly? Smart! That's how you drag in mountains of useful nutrients. Fruit is good for your health and reduces the risk of chronic diseases. Not convinced yet? Discover our wide range of fruit salads in your trusted supermarket and discover how delicious fruit can be.

3. Sustainable

Given the global ecological challenges, ensuring a better future is our mission. Doing business with respect for nature is what we believe in at Frupeco. Every day we take small steps in the right direction to reduce our ecological footprint. We are also committed to offering healthy and balanced food as an alternative to pre-packaged and often unhealthy cookies.

Respecting
nature

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do

Whenever possible, we buy seasonally and locally. We also have +20 hectares of fruit orchards, a natural water purification system and solar panels that provide us with much of our electricity needs. We also primarily use Repet for our packaging.
All this is in line with our commitment to be at the forefront of a circular economy and sustainable business.

Thanks to the +20 hectares of fruit orchards surrounding the production facility, we have been growing our own apples and pears for more than 60 years, which we process ourselves into bite-sized and fresh fruit salads, sliced apple products and applesauce.

We purify our wastewater through the reed bed on the site. The water we use for washing the fruit and cleaning the plant is purified thanks to the reeds. This purified water is then stored and reused to irrigate our fruit orchards.

We also have our own solar panels and an internal heat recovery network. Thus, we make use of the heat produced from the cooling system to heat our offices.

Our waste doesn't just go into the trash either. For example, the apple peel scraps are turned into apple puree by grater, which is then pasteurized and reused in apple sauce.
The fruit peel scraps are collected daily for the production of Bio-gas.
