Florida
As grapefruit producers from Florida, we joined the Ocean Spray cooperative in 1976 after a boom in the sector that began in the early 1970s when the ‘grapefruit diet’ came into fashion.
The harvest takes place from October to April when the fruit meets Ocean Spray’s stringent quality standards, which demand sweet and juicy fruits. Around 40% of the fruit is made into juice and 60% is sold in the fresh fruit market.
