Growing the highest quality produce is our goal.

For over the past 60 years, Mehadrin has always believed that the foundations of the company are rooted in the earth of its orchards and the people in the field.

Over 75% of our fresh produce comes directly from our own groves – groves we planted, managed, picked and packaged. All with one thought in mind: to make sure our clients receive the freshest produce possible.

We promote responsible and sustainable agriculture through all of our growers. Using recycled water, reducing energy consumption and fuels for agriculture machinery, expanding methods of biological pest control, increasing recycling rates and more, it's out priority to take care of the land – the base of our products.

Every fruit, citrus and vegetable is carefully selected and allocated to a specific client – giving us the flexibility to offer specific produce and packaging solutions for each individual client.

We track our Energy efficiency and move towards Renewable energy production, our waste management is using the principle of REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE. Mehadrin was the first Israeli company to measure and calculate its products' Carbon Footprint using a Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) approach.

Mehadrin's logistical team is the beating heart of the global operations system which assures that all our produce reaches its destination in the most efficient way at the fastest pace in order to maximize its shelf life.

Mehadrin has pioneered the development of a quality assurance system in which every step of the production process -from planting through to end consumer- is monitored and documented. The meticulous system enables Mehadrin to track all consignments back to individual plot and grower.

Our growers work closely with leading institutions in Israel such as the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, The Agricultural Research Organization (ARO) – Volcani Center, and the Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment in the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
