“The bananas are too green, the delivery did not arrive on time, there was always some rotten product, if something is wrong the supplier does not come back to solve the problem, the sizes of the goods are not good.

How many times have I heard these phrases said, from customers who then turned to us”

Alberto Stancari - Commercial fruit owner
The commercial fruit supply division deals with providing high quality fruits and vegetables to industrial kitchens. In many years of activity, we have become aware of the various problems that emerge day after day, and that in any case characterize this type of service. We are well aware that an industrial kitchen has prices to manage, it has supplies in turn with prices to keep under control, and the change in values of the fruit and vegetable market often makes it difficult to sell their products.
We are aware of the many problems that an industrial kitchen must face, one is certainly that of having to keep costs under control, another is that of obviously having to comply with very strict and rightly very strict regulations in the production of its food. Surely there must be a balance between the choice of a quality food and the price at which this industrial product can be sold. These are just some of the challenges that a professional kitchen faces on a daily basis. Faced with all these problems, the only thing in our opinion that you should not worry about is to stock up on fruits and vegetables.

To create our products, we decided to collaborate with a local company very close to us, which is the Commerfrutta company in Stancari. First with Mr. Maurizio and now with Alberto. It offers us an excellent service because when needed they deliver morning and afternoon, they are exceptional and their products are useful to us for the various items we produce, from pastry to vegetables as far as the kitchen is concerned, even in the fresh pasta department where we make tortelloni with radicchio, with spinach. The Commerfrutta company follows us around the clock.

All this is followed by our customer service who recommends the best product day by day. Being on the markets every day, every morning on various markets in northern Italy, we are able to find many solutions and thus we are able to offer exactly what our customer needs at that time. Precisely for this reason we have structured this service, to give peace of mind and the opportunity to our customers to think only and exclusively about what their production is

The Hidden Challenges of the Sector: Between Perisability, Markets and Services

You should know that most of the companies that supply fruits and vegetables have many problems to manage, which are never said!

The first problem stems from the fact that we are dealing with a perishable product, which on average at best can last about 10 days.
The second problem lies in knowing how to read and predict the market. Only with a daily and constant presence and scientific monitoring can the right balance be found in the quality/price ratio.

Most operators in the fruit and vegetable sector want you to think that it's a simple job, but it's not like that.

If they are small companies, they do not have the facilities, the means, the adequate personnel to be able to offer a valuable service.
If they are large companies, they find themselves having to dispose of quantities of goods that have been stored in cold rooms for a long time, running out of days to consume their products, due to large, slow and complex internal management processes.

Then there are the problems of those who must manage a professional kitchen:
  • Keep costs under control.
  • Find a balance between quality ingredients and the need to respect costs.
  • Ensure the freshness of the ingredients.
  • Comply with food safety regulations.
These are just a few of the challenges it faces.

Commerfrutta: The Solution for Optimizing Quality and Purchasing Management

If the staff who work in the kitchen find themselves with poor quality products, they will waste a lot of time processing and this translates into hundreds of euros of products and time wasted.

Those who deal with orders cannot and are not required to know the market trend, the daily changes in product prices and without a flow of correct information, making mistakes is very easy.

When it is impossible to have a buyer and a purchasing department, a warehouse to prepare orders, a network of vehicles to deliver them, the solution is to rely on Commerfrutta.

The choice to rely on Commerfrutta allows its customer to have their own purchasing department, without having to bear the burden.

With more than 80 years of experience, a purchasing network that sees us every morning from 3 am on the main markets of northern Italy, a logistics center and a network of delivery vehicles, we guarantee:
  • A fresh product, ready to be processed, without waste or unnecessary waste of time.
  • Timely deliveries according to the customer's needs.
  • Supporting customer service.
  • The right product, both in terms of quality and size within the established time frame.
  • A company that wants to grow together with its customers.
