Sustainability

Committed to the planet and our communities.

Our Approach

Cultivating a Green Future

At UMEX Global Partners, sustainability is not just a buzzword, it is the core of our business model. We understand that to offer the best avocado in the world, we must take care of the land that produces it and the hands that cultivate it.

Regenerative Agriculture

We promote practices that restore soil health, increase biodiversity, and capture carbon. Our producers implement plant covers and minimize the use of agrochemicals, prioritizing biological control.

Water Management

Colombian avocado benefits from an abundant natural rainfall regime. We complement this with high-efficiency drip irrigation systems and watershed protection, ensuring responsible water use.

Social Impact

We generate formal and dignified employment in rural areas. We support small producers with technical assistance, fair prices, and access to international markets, strengthening the social fabric of our regions.

Clean Energy

Our packing plants are in the process of transitioning to renewable energy sources. We optimize our logistics routes to reduce the carbon footprint in the transport of our products.
