FRESH FROM THE GROVE TO THE RETAIL TABLE

Connecting packing sheds, border coolers, and buyers so fresh fruit never sits.

Tropical fruit loses its sweetness and shelf life when pallets sit disconnected between the packing shed in Mexico or Peru, the cold-storage room at the border, and the buyer's desk. Tarima links all three constituents on one live availability, weather, and cold-chain rail.
