We are ADOS FRESH

Producer / Trader / Packer / Service provider

 

We are committed to bringing value to shoppers, contributing to a balanced market based on the consumption of Romanian products and fighting against food waste.

Established in 2014 with entirely Romanian private capital, our company ADOS FRESH, stands out on the Romanian fruit and vegetable market by having a vast and integrated experience in the entire production and distribution chain. This means we can successfully manage each specific stage, from production to the supermarket. Here’s how we do it:

  • Diversified in-house production: Using our own agricultural machinery, we produce a wide range of items including: watermelons, watermelons, low seeded melons, yellow core watermelons – limonium, Halloween and pie pumpkins, cucumbers, potatoes and corn. This direct control over production allows us to ensure quality and offer fresh products to our customers.
  • Dedicated department for buying and selling vegetables and fruit: Our buyers and sellers successfully manage the trading activities of globally produced vegetables and fruit, ensuring that we meet market requirements promptly and professionally.
  • Dedicated grain trading department: made up of experts with extensive experience in the field, our dedicated team meets customer requirements and ensures efficient management of grain trading: corn, wheat, rapeseed, sunflower, barley, peas and soybeans.
  • Own packing station and warehouses with storage capacities of 500 tons: We are equipped with modern machinery in the potato and onion packing station, offering a variety of products from 500 g bags to 25 kg. We also have a second cold store equipped for the efficient storage of products requiring controlled temperature: carrots, celery, mango, avocado, grapes, ginger, garlic, leeks, pears, sweet potatoes, etc.
  • Own temperature-controlled freight: Through our group’s transport partners, we ensure the prompt and safe delivery of products with ADOS FRESH branded trucks to any destination in the country.
  • Extensive services for third parties: we offer warehousing, cargo handling, sorting, labelling and packaging services for other companies in the fruit and vegetable industry, both in Romania and in Europe.

This unique business model allows us to remain competitive and involved in the Romanian food industry.
