Packing & Quality Control

At Keta Fresh Produce, quality doesn’t end at the farm — it’s preserved through every stage of our packing process.

From the moment our avocados arrive at the packhouse, they are carefully sorted, graded, and packed under strict hygiene and food safety protocols.

Our certified facilities ensure that every fruit meets international export standards, while our trained team inspects for consistency, ripeness, and presentation. With full traceability and attention to detail, we guarantee that only the best produce reaches your shelves.
