One grower. One border. One person who picks up the phone. Export-grade fresh Hass avocados sourced from a single origin in Ciudad Guzmán, crossed through McAllen, Texas, and invoiced in USD by our U.S. entity — no corporate routing, no supply gaps.
The five names that dominate U.S. Hass — Calavo, Mission, Index Fresh, West Pak, Del Rey — optimize for mass retail. If you run a regional wholesale house, a 3–20 unit foodservice group or an independent distribution program, you're a rounding error to them. You aren't to us.
The grove · Ciudad Guzmán, Jalisco
Single origin
Every one of the five giants files Mexican fruit under a generic "Mexico." Nobody names the grove. We do: your Hass comes grower-direct from Ciudad Guzmán, Jalisco — a single, traceable origin, walked and packed by the same group that supplies it. Fewer hands between the tree and your dock means cleaner traceability, tighter quality, and sharper pricing.
Export-grade Hass · quality-selected
The single biggest gap in this category: nobody publishes the numbers. Every purchase starts with a long call. We put the specs where you can read them — so you can qualify us before you ever pick up the phone.
Calavo keeps an office in Laredo. Mission built a "Laredo Megacenter." Neither tells you what it means for your load. We built the story they left on the table: a dedicated, cold-chain corridor from the Jalisco grove through McAllen, Texas — the de-facto avocado lane into the U.S. — straight to your dock.
Cut and packed in Ciudad Guzmán under export quality standards.
Loaded cold and hauled north to McAllen with cold-chain integrity. [confirm transit hours]
Cleared through McAllen, TX — the established produce corridor into the U.S.
FOB McAllen, or DDP delivered to your facility — you pick the term.
You're sourcing from Mexico — but you never touch a Mexican export invoice. Fresh Hass is sold, invoiced and collected in the United States by Americas Food & Nutrition LLC (AFN), our U.S. entity with EIN and a current W-9. USD in, USD out, on domestic terms. Zero CFDI, zero SAT, zero cross-border paperwork on your side.
Backed by an early-payment facility (AeroPay Express, advance against receivables), we hold your Net 30/60/90 terms without the cash-flow friction that usually kills a grower-direct deal.
Meet Americas Food & Nutrition →Every competitor hides the human behind sales@ and a contact form. We put a face and a phone on the page. You get one bilingual contact who knows your program, quotes fast, and actually answers — in hours, not days.
Mission Produce is acquiring Calavo Growers — a roughly USD 430M deal expected to close in 2026. Mergers of that size pull attention inward for 6 to 12 months: systems, teams and territories get reshuffled, and mid-market accounts feel it first.
That's exactly the account we're built to take care of. Boutique attention, grower-direct pricing, and a person who answers — while the incumbents are busy integrating.

Fresh Hass is the core — but the same origin also supplies a fully integrated value-added line that none of the five giants offers. For manufacturers and formulators who want shelf-stable, ready-to-use avocado from a source they already trust.
High-Pressure Processing locks in safety and integrity — no chemicals, no heat.
Sublimated at −50 °C — natural color, flavor and nutrients, no cold chain.
Cold-pressed from premium Hass — the fourth format from the same single origin. Spec sheet available on request.
