Hectares of Pineapple plantation in the

Philippines particularly in General Santos City,

Municipality of Polomolok and parts of

Bukidnon Province.

Pineapples were freshly harvested from the plantation ready to be transported to the plant. During this part, grading of the fruits were made according to sizes and

weight based on the buyer’s specification.

control procedures and also to prevent the hastening of the fruits to ripe.

the cartoons. The content of the cartoon depends on the

size of the pineapple the way they were segregated.

Labels are placed on each fruit after it is

placed in the cartoon for identification purpose.

Boxes of pineapples are now piled in container vans ready for shipment to the

buyer.
