Specialized in international Fresh Produce Trade
Since 2015, Von Harras AGF has been operating within the international AGF market, with a strong focus on trading in various quality categories and international sales markets. The accumulated expertise has its origins in the banana trade.
For both premium A-quality and B-quality and lots with quality deviations that cannot be traded through the regular sales process, we search for the right market within our international network with the goal of achieving the best possible final yield.
Von Harras AGF earns from its own trading positions or from successfully bringing parties together within its carefully constructed network of suppliers and buyers.
Fresh Produce and quality assessment
In the company’s early years, an important part of its trading activities lay in the banana market. During this period, Von Harras AGF gained intensive experience with quality inspections of purchased lots.
This has built in-depth knowledge of quality standards, product specifications and market acceptance criteria.
Successfully completed the required professional courses and modules, leading to extensive product knowledge and a highly developed commercial judgment vision. Our services now go beyond mediation.
We have independent, experienced quality agencies inspect the products traded through us. In addition, we support as needed:
- Preventive risk assessments
- Compliance issues
- Documentation and international trade formalities
Quality problems solved
Quality issues arise in every trade sector. Fresh produce, unfortunately, is no exception. The cause of quality problems can vary.
You can contact us for such things as:
- Refusal by consignee
- Delay of goods resulting in loss of quality
- Improper or suboptimal storage temperatures
- Damage parties
- Aging lots due to market changes
Von Harras AGF searches within its global network of reliable partners and buyers for a suitable final destination for these lots.
The starting point is always correct, transparent and prompt handling, with the goal of the highest attainable yield and retention of trade relations.
