Mission Produce

Mission Produce describes itself as a global leader growing and delivering the World's Finest Avocados™ and World's Finest Mangos™. The company states it offers a year-round supply for retail, wholesale, and foodservice customers, currently servicing 25 countries. It reports a global network powered by 20+ countries and 19+ facilities, and states it is vertically integrated with 4,000+ hectares of avocados and mangos across California, Peru, Colombia, Guatemala, and South Africa, and owns 5 packinghouses across the U.S., Mexico, Peru, and Guatemala. Mission Produce describes itself as a $1B public company (Nasdaq: AVO) selling billions of avocados globally.

Mission Produce traces its beginnings to 1983 in California, when produce industry veterans and avocado growers Steve Barnard and Ed Williams began selling fresh California avocados in the U.S. In 1985, the company expanded south with the construction of two packinghouses in Michoacán, Mexico, opening the door to new markets in Asia, Europe, and Canada. Between 1993 and 1997, Mission Produce kicked off the first of its avocado ripening trials and helped bring avocados from Mexico to the U.S. for the first time. In 1998, it rolled out its first ripe avocado programs to the industry. From 2000 to 2010, its sourcing network went global across premier growing regions.
