for it to remain ripe. Seasonal flavors at the peak of deliciousness are delivered, and you can enjoy a product in

its unique network of farmers to carefully select farmers who offer deliciousness at that moment from alarge number of farms.

Thorough temperature control from harvest to delivery
We have realized a cold chain to maintain low temperatures during delivery. In addition, to ensure that theproducts are ripe to eat on the day they are delivered, we carefully adjust the ripening process both duringtransportation from a farm to the Green Bean's warehouse and when they are stocked at the warehouse.
Careful control of temperature and ripeness from the time of harvest to delivery enables the fruit to be"ready-to-eat from the day it is delivered."⚫

Thorough inspection using a sensor to determine ripenessA final check is made to determine when the fruit is ripe to eat, depending on the fruit uniqueness. Ourcenter is equipped with specialized machinery that scientifically predicts when fruit is ripe, and determines
its ripeness based on strict standards.
*Some products are inspected by specialized staff instead of specialized machinery.

*We deliver these products, taking thorough measures from harvest to delivery, to ensure that they are what Green Beansconfidently believes to be "ready-to-eat." However, if you are not satisfied with the quality, we will refund it.
