How is that possible?

Our low-energy greenhouses help reduce our greenhouse gas emissions

Grown in Morocco under favourable climate conditions, our snacking tomatoes have a carbon footprint at least 1.5 times lower than that of winter-grown European produce, which relies on heated and/or artificially lit greenhouses.

16,000 TONS LESS OF CO₂, THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE!

Thanks to our composting project, we reduce our carbon footprint by 16,000 metric tons of CO₂ each year (carbon footprint assessments for 22-23 and 23-24 prepared by Blonk Consultancy).

And what about water?

By contracting 100% of its water needs from desalinated sources in Agadir, Azura minimizes reliance on fragile groundwater reserves.

Our Commitments for the Future

Azura is committed to a clear path toward reducing its carbon footprint

The Great Taste
of Quality

Quality, traceability, and food safety: from the nursery to client delivery, Azura implements strict control points at every stage, always striving for excellence.

    Our standards in 4 steps

  1. 1

    Production

    We are gradually reducing our inputs through biological treatments, notably with the help of Biobest Morocco, which supports natural pollination (bumblebees) and pest control within our crops.

  2. HARVESTING

    Harvesting takes place as early as possible to avoid the heat. Once picked and sorted by batch, the snacking tomatoes are quickly transported to the packing station for packaging.

  3. 3

    QUALITY CONTROL

    Fruit inspection is carried out based on each client’s specifications.
For every batch, the teams assess several criteria such as size, color, and more.

  4. Scientific Analyses

    Azura ensures constant monitoring through phytosanitary, microbiological and chemical analyses to control the quality of our products.
