Product Range and Specialties of AGRIFOOD COMMODITIES SL

The supplier’s catalogue covers citrus fruits (mandarins, oranges, lemons), temperate fruits (apples, pears, grapes), vegetables (onion, potato, garlic), animal products (meat, poultry, seafood) and raw commodities (cocoa beans, raw cashew nuts, rice, sugar). In the fresh‑produce market, EU standards differentiate grades by size, Brix level (typically 11‑13 % for citrus), firmness and absence of blemishes; Class I produce meets the strictest criteria. Nuts are commonly graded by size (e.g., W180 for cashew) and moisture (under 5 %) with aflatoxin limits of 10 µg kg‑1. Cocoa beans are usually classified as AA or A, with moisture below 7 % and foreign matter under 2 %. Rice varieties are evaluated on moisture (≤14 %), broken grain percentage (<5 %) and husk removal, while refined sugar is often specified by ICUMSA 45 purity. Typical packaging includes 10 kg cartons for fruits, 20‑ft refrigerated containers for perishable goods, and bulk bags or 25 kg sacks for dry commodities.
