The SONO European office is based in Rotterdam close to our major juice entry points. This strategic location enables our team to be hands on with our product supply and quality management. Rotterdam also provides easy access to the European customers. Our offices primarily act as the sales agents for our own products coming from Ghana and Brazil. The core products that we are selling in Europe are conventional and organic Acerola, Mango and other tropical fruit juices, purees and concentrates in cloudy, low pulp or clarified status.
The facility produces a variety of citrus and tropical single strength, concentrated, pulp-reduced and clarified juices and purees. It is located 259 Km from Salvador and is close to the rich growing areas in Bahia state. Through our own-state-of-the-art laboratories, we can maintain strong quality controls to guarantee that our products conform to the most rigorous quality standards.
SONO Ghana is the largest fruit juice processing facility in West Africa with a daily production capacity of over 400MT. We have our own in-house cold storage facility, thereby ensuring that we maintain full control over our product security and quality. Our production site is also situated in a free trade zone, enabling us to provide blending hub services into the rest of West Africa, which is one of the fastest-growing juice-consuming regions of the world.
