The fruits come to Germany by air. This means that they are available in stores a few days after harvest. We know that the air transport of our products is ecologically problematic because of the high carbon dioxide emissions. For our farmers in Uganda and the neighboring west of Tanzania, however, there is no other way of bringing their products to the European market. The transport of the fruit by land to the coast is cumbersome and lengthy, and for fresh fruit it is actually impossible. Their quality would suffer extremely as a result. In addition, the fruits would have to be harvested green and ripen in the warehouse, if that is possible at all. As a result, they would not taste better than comparable but significantly cheaper products from coastal countries in West Africa or Central America. Our farmers would have no chance in the market. That is why we decided to use air transport for the benefit of our farmers.
