The preferred exporter

Dole SA has been a preferred exporter for growers since 1998. Today the company exports and produces grapes, citrus, stone fruit, blueberries and avocados, sourced from the most favourable growing regions in the country. All our operations are compliant with industry standards designed to produce fruit that is nutritious, safe to eat and sustainably sourced. Our harvest calendar and varieties can be viewed from the link below.

Reliable source of supply

Dole’s owned and leased farms are strategically positioned in the Northern and Western Cape regions of South Africa.  Together with fruit procured from our 3rd party growers, this ensures a consistent supply to markets. The Northern Cape produces South Africa’s earliest grapes while the Western Cape is ideal for producing grapes and citrus.
