Avocado

Origin of Product: Kenya
Available Brands: Gülfruta

Avocados are renowned worldwide for their exceptional health benefits and are a staple in Latin American cuisine. We normally export from Kenya, the country primarily produces two commercial varieties:

Dark-skinned variety: Features rough, dark skin when ripe, high oil content (18–24%), and a long shelf life—making it ideal for export between March and September.

Pear-shaped variety: Smooth green skin that remains green when ripe, with moderate oil content (15–18%). Grown in both high and mid-altitude zones.

Our Avocados’ Features

Texture & Firmness
The skin—pebbly or smooth, depending on the variety—is free from major blemishes, cracks, or soft, sunken spots.

Color & Appearance (when cut)
The flesh is a creamy, vibrant green, often with a lighter yellow hue near the pit. Its flavor is rich, buttery, and nutty, with a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth consistency.

Weight
Our avocados are typically heavier for their size, indicating an excellent flesh-to-pit ratio and a dense, creamy texture.
