“We chose to partner with Just Avocados because of their great service, it’s a good family-run business, and everyone is accessible.”
Sid Turnbull (On behalf of the Turnbull family orchards), Katikati
“Our family has been facing the challenge of growing healthy and productive avocado trees in Katikati for almost 40 years. We have been part of the Just Avocados team since its establishment in 2010. The attributes that impact me the most about them are their friendly nature, their keenness to develop grower discussion groups and field days, and their willingness to work with rather than snip at other grower groupings. They are always willing to assist us and at times we certainly need it.”
Fi and Andrew Cutfield, Loca Vista Ltd, Whakamarama
“We have partnered with Just Avocados since 2014. The switch from our previous provider came about after reviewing three years of comparative returns and meeting with the Just Avocados team. Three major things that attracted us to Just Avocados were the late season harvest premium which meant a $2-$4 premium per tray; the value the Just Avocados team added by creating flexible pick plans and also challenging my orchard management practices; and the culture of Just Avocados where they are committed to adding value across my business. These benefits are what we want in a partnership.”
