Corpohass is the Corporation of Hass Avocado Producers and Exporters in Colombia. We promote the growth and competitiveness of our sector. We represent the actors that make up the value chain of our agribusiness in national and international scenarios.
When you become a member, you have exclusive access to a key network of contacts, relevant market and sector information, specialized training and business opportunities to strengthen your participation in our agribusiness and contribute to the opening of new markets.
These are the audiences we directly represent:
- Producers: from small farmers to large production companies.
- Exporters: companies dedicated to the commercialization and export of fruit.
- Processors: specialized in Hass avocado processed by-products.
And these are the ones we represent indirectly:
- Packers: process, pack and condition the fruit for commercialization.
- Suppliers of inputs and services: key to production and marketing.
- Other actors: they contribute to the sustainability, development and competitiveness of our sector, from the field to the final consumer.
It is common to think this, perhaps because Antioquia is the department where most Hass avocado is grown. But, in reality, we have Affiliates in 9 of the 16 productive departments of the country, and close to 60 municipalities. We cover from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta to Cauca. In addition, our affiliated exporters operate throughout the country. We work to benefit everyone, regardless of their geographic location.
We focus on managing key projects for the sector, such as certifications, implementation of good agricultural practices and international market access. To provide specific technical assistance or extension services, we collaborate with public entities through agreements and hire qualified personnel per project. This ensures that our Affiliates receive the technical support necessary to meet various requirements and high quality standards.
Yes, the Corporation is structuring our CeniHass and we hope that it will soon become a reality. We are currently working on the development of three lines of research that will form the basis of our future research center: plant material, soils, and production costs.
