Quality and logistics

How the fruit travels from a Greek field to the buyer's dock in one of five Polish cities.

Step by step

How the fruit gets from Manolada to your warehouse

  1. 01

    Collection from the grower

    We take the fruit directly from growers we have worked with for years.

  2. 02

    Batch inspection

    We check quality on site, before the goods set off at all.

  3. 03

    Loading in Manolada

    The batch travels on a single run, assigned to one destination city.

  4. 04

    Transport to Poland

    A route through Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia, Hungary and Slovakia — run by us.

  5. 05

    Handover to the buyer

    Unloading at the customer and confirmation that the fruit arrived as agreed.

Where we deliver

From Manolada straight to five Polish cities

We import strawberries to selected cities in Poland. Each shipment goes to one city only — so the fruit does not criss-cross the country or lose time on transloading.

Where quality begins in the field

A strawberry cannot be improved after picking. It can only be spoiled — by late cooling, by transloading in the heat, or by standing too long on the way. That is why we watch every one of those moments instead of hoping for the best.

Working directly with the grower gives us something no middleman can: we know which field a batch came from, when it was picked and how it was grown. If the fruit does not meet the parameters, it does not travel further.
