Fresh fruits and vegetables are made of between 85% and 95% of water. When exposed on the fresh departments of a store, these products face different issues : handling of customers, handling of employees and they are confronted with storage conditions and exposure of the store (heat of lighting, ambient temperature, dryness due to the air conditioning). These factors increase the products breakage.
ARECO offers a solution for the global management of your fresh departments based on several conservation systems: nebulisation, contact cooling, the Fresh Herbs module, and the digital technology Addachef. This solution improves the conservation and growth of sales of fruits and vegetable to answer the new food consumption patterns: taste, health and meaning.
ARECO is involved in the different steps of the food chain: ARECO products are installed in a cold room during product storage and on the fresh departments of the food shops. At the consumer level, products can be prepared using the recipes proposed by ARECO.
