Procurement

Excellence in procurement distinguishes Total produce from its competition. Experienced in anticipating trends and managing contingencies, a core strength of the company lies in its capacity to accurately synchronise supply and demand, leading the marketplace rather than following it.

Total Produce aims to deliver not only value through collective procurement but also continuity of supply, consistency of quality and breadth of range.

The company endeavours to balance the security of its own vertically integrated supply chain with the flexibility of strategic outsourcing. Notably, it retains a unique relationship with Fyffes plc (through which all tropical fruits are procured and branded) while trough its holding in Capespan plc, it is strongly placed to supply key citrus, deciduous and stonefruit categories to the European market.

These partnerships not only give Total Produce a real and tangible on-the-ground presence in key global production regions but also provide consumer brands of world renown such as Cape, Fyffes and Outspan.

To deliver on its promise to provide the complete fresh produce basket to its customers, Total Produce also complements its own comprehensive supply sources with produce from other reputable producers around the world. Utilising relationships forged over decades by its category specialists - without peer in the global fresh produce industry - the company procures a vast selection of produce from a multitude of countries and specially selected suppliers.

The one constant is the exacting ethical and quality standards Total Produce expects. The result is a seamless supply chain, fashioned to meet and exceed the expectations of customers 52 weeks a year.
