Open in Pharr: Avocado Ripening Facility

Index Fresh, an avocado packing and distribution company headquartered in Riverside, CA, recently spearheaded a ribbon-cutting for its new, 60,000-squre-foot avocado ripening and packing facility in Pharr, TX. The building, situated on eight acres, is offering a 300-pallet, cold-storage warehouse, geared specifically to accept avocados from Mexico, ripen them, and then send them north to various parts of the United States.

The new facility, in the 90-acre Pharr Produce Park, is the company’s second ripening center. Index Fresh also has a center in California. The company handles avocados from Chile, to Peru, to Mexico. Tippmann Innovation designed and developed the building at 110 W. Capote Central Ave.
