Origins

When I joined the company in 2015, I quickly realised this wasn’t just about exporting Thai fruits and vegetables. It was about building long-term relationships and creating value throughout the supply chain.

What started as a small family initiative has grown into an enterprise that reaches markets across the world. As a producer and exporter of figs, guavas, carambolas, atemoyas, and peaches, we have embraced innovation while honoring the traditions. Our mission has always been clear: to offer high-quality products while investing in our orchards and supporting the people who make our work possible.

Hi! We are Younes and Rachida, and together with our dedicated team, we grow a wide range of exceptional, exotic citrus fruits on our family farm, which was established in 1950 near the historic city of Fez, Morocco. Our farm's story began when my great-grandfather purchased 500 hectares next to the Sebou River, and over time, my father planted our current 82 hectares with citrus trees in 1986. Following in his footsteps, I became both a surgeon and a citrus farmer, and though the farm has passed through new hands, we’ve continued to evolve and grow.

In 2014, Margareta and I, both passionate about Indonesia’s rich natural resources, decided to introduce the country’s unique and high-quality fruits to the global market. We focused on fruits like mangosteen, snake fruit, and kaffir limes, taking advantage of Indonesia’s tropical climate and the seasonal harvests across its islands to offer fresh fruit year-round. Our goal was not only to export but also to showcase Indonesia’s potential on the world stage.

The Saborichi® Soils selection offers a range of seasonal, local vegetables that come directly out of the rich soils of European fields. This line emphasizes locality and the connection with European agricultural traditions, offering a fresh addition to the variety of produce we provide, alongside our exotic imports. While some exotic fruits and vegetables must be sourced from tropical regions, many colorful, special produce can be found closer to home.

We began our journey in October 1986 with a first shipment of just ten boxes of Cape gooseberry to Europe. Since then, we have grown into an established exporter with a strong presence in Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru.

Our company is driven by a commitment to providing high-quality, diverse, and healthy products while supporting local communities and continuously improving its operations. With nearly 200 employees and a presence across three continents: Europe, Africa, and South America, it actively promotes high standards in food quality, supplier partnerships, and community engagement.

In the heart of Costa Rica, our story of passion and purpose is rooted in the values of family en community. Founded by my father, Claudio Bonilla, our company has been built on a strong foundation of hard work and dedication. For over three decades, we have worked together as a dedicated team of agricultural professionals to bring the natural richness of our region to the world.
