OUR PRODUCTS

Avocado provides high quantities of nutrients and antioxidants, thereby providing nutrients while neutralizing dangerous elements in the body. It is a superfood containing 20 vitamins, minerals, fiber, and phytonutrients. There are a variety of ways it can be eaten, and it can be added to different recipes: soups, juices, toast, salads, smoothies. It is difficult not to find a reason to include avocado in your diet.

Avocado highly adapts to different rain conditions, however the average should be well distributed 1,000-1,600mm per annum. Panocal’s location in the slopes of Mt. Elgon provides the ideal environment for production of quality avocados.

Avocado is Panocal’s latest diversification. Phase 1 has seen the planting of 26 hectares of Hass avocados in 2019 with another 45 hectares for the end of 2021 of the same variety. Altogether, Panocal has set aside 160 hectares for this new venture and planting should be complete by mid-2022.

All the avocado production will be for the export market with an avocado pack house already built for the first exports. A new dam has been specifically built for the avocados and all water harvested from the flower greenhouses will now flow to our dams for the extra avocado production..
