The business is known globally as a marketer and distributor of fresh and fresh-cut vegetables and fruits. Marketing under the brand names Del Monte, ROSY, UTC and several other brands, the company produces and distributes their products in Africa, Europe and in the Middle East. Their products include snacks, beverages, juices, desserts and prepared fruit and vegetables. Its major key product is the Del Monte Gold pineapple. The brand name Del Monte has been made synonymous with freshness, innovation, reliability and quality since 1892.
Today, the business operates through its four divisions: land trucking, ocean shipping, operations and sales and packaging. Their land trucking segment operates 24/7, 365 days a year. It is through their trucking company, Tricont Trucking Company that they are able to reach their customers on time and with compliance with their cold chain policy and processes. This company supports their distribution system in North America. Fresh Del Monte Produce’s ocean shipping unit owns and operates 15 refrigerated vessels in addition to 8 that they chartered. These vessels service the ports in America and in Europe. Operations and Sales division oversees their entire market operations. It works on the distribution of their products in over 100 countries around the world while their Packaging Development Group works on keeping their newly harvested produce fresh.
Though the company still has the “Del Monte” on their business name, the Fresh Del Monte Produce is already considered as a separate entity since its spinoff from Del Monte Foods in 1989. Despite the absence of affiliation, the company continues to market bananas, pineapples and other produce using the Del Monte label under a licensing agreement.
