We are a consortium (not a Limited Company and not even to mention, a multinational company) that produces over 400,000 tons of apples in the Non and Sole Valleys. A big family of over 4000 families of member-farmers, divided into 16 cooperatives, that live and cultivate apple-farms in the Noce Valleys (Non and Sole Valleys). These families of farmers are the seal of quality and sustainability of our fruit. Apples are not like wine, cheese, or other food industries. An apple must be good straight from the tree, and can’t become good in any other way. The taste and crunchiness of our apples starts in our orchards, thanks to the care and work of our family-farms. Melinda consortium takes care of the organization and management of all the post-picking steps (stocking, refrigerated storage, selection, packaging, distribution, promotion, sale, administration, purchasing, human resources…).
