Why India, Why Now

India is one of the fastest-growing avocado import markets in the world. This growth is structural, not seasonal — driven by an expanding urban middle class, rising health consciousness, and a food service sector actively integrating avocados into premium menus.

11,585%

India Avocado Import Growth

From negligible volume in 2014–15 to approximately 4,000 tonnes annually in 2023–24. The Avolution has been active in this market since 2023 — we are not arriving to discover opportunity, we are here to deepen a supply relationship we have already established.

Our India Track Record

We Were First

The Avolution was the lead participant in the phytosanitary protocol trial process between Australia and India — and the first Australian exporter to ship avocados into India under the finalised protocol. That history means we understand this supply chain from direct operational experience, not from a trade presentation.

When you work with The Avolution, you work with a team that has already navigated the compliance requirements, the logistics, and the relationships that make Australian avocado supply into India work.

TRAILS

Supply Calendar

Seasonal Availability

The Avolution's Hass program provides supply continuity for Indian buyers across the vast majority of the calendar year — reducing the need to transition between multiple supplier relationships.

Hass Avocado

March through January — Approximately 11 months

Dark-skinned, rich, creamy flavour. The dominant global variety. Well established with Indian consumers and food service operators. Currently the only Australian variety approved for import into India.

How We Work

From Orchard to Your Door

The Avolution manages the supply chain from grower to importer. Our model is built around one principle: the fewer hands between the orchard and your door, the better the quality and the more transparent the price.

1

Grower Selection & Fruit Supply

120+ grower partners supply fruit grown under certified food safety programs. Selected for consistent quality and reliable supply — not volume alone.

2

Grading & Packing

Fruit moves through a graded packing process — sorted by size and quality into standard count trays. Sizing follows international export standards.

3

Freight Forwarding

Packed fruit is tracked to a freight forwarder — either airfreight or sea freight depending on the order and the buyer's requirements.

4

Shipping Line Selection

For sea freight, The Avolution pre-selects the shipping line based on destination port — Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) or otherwise. Driven by transit time and cold chain reliability.

5

Port Delivery

Fruit is delivered directly to port. The importer takes control of the container at the agreed delivery point. Price is final. Supply obligation complete.

Quality & Compliance

Certified to the Highest Standards

Australian fresh produce operates under some of the most rigorous food safety and compliance requirements in the world. The standards demanded by Australian domestic supermarket retailers — Aldi, Woolworths, and Coles — are as high as, or higher than, those required by most international import markets.

When you source from The Avolution's grower network, you are sourcing fruit that already meets this benchmark.

Standard
What It Means for You
HARPS

Harmonised Australian Retailer Produce Standard — the food safety certification required by Aldi, Woolworths, and Coles. The highest domestic food safety benchmark.

SQF / HACCP

International food safety management standards covering critical control points from post-harvest through to despatch.

Fresh Care

Grower-level certification specific to Australian avocado production — covering pesticide use, water management, and worker welfare.

Phytosanitary Protocol

The Avolution participated in the trial phase of the bilateral Australia–India protocol and has managed compliant shipments since 2023.

Transparent Pricing

The Avolution operates on a return-to-grower model. Our commercial objective is to maximise what growers receive for their fruit — and our fee structure reflects that.

No Hidden Charges

Price is fixed at point of agreement. No post-delivery adjustments.

No Middlemen

Direct grower-to-importer model. Fewer hands, better quality.

Negotiate Before Confirming

Buyers are quoted a price and have the opportunity to negotiate before the order is confirmed.

Transparent Fee

Everything else goes back to the grower. No exceptions.

FOB Pricing

Free on Board — price is set at the point the fruit is loaded onto the vessel or aircraft. The buyer assumes freight and insurance costs from that point.

CIF Pricing

Cost, Insurance & Freight — price is quoted landed into the buyer's market, with freight and insurance included. The price is final at the point of delivery.
