After visiting the guava and papaya gardens, our journey to explore the freshest ingredients of RITA Company continues at the pineapple farm—a place that brings the perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess, characteristic of tropical fruits. More than just a refreshing fruit, pineapple is a rich source of vitamins and natural enzymes beneficial to health. Join RITA as we embark on a journey to discover the pineapple farm, from cultivation to becoming delicious bottles of juice, delivering an exceptional experience to consumers.
The Pineapple Farm – Where the Journey Begins
At RITA, product quality always starts with the finest ingredients. That’s why we collaborate with farms in the Mekong Delta, a fertile region with an ideal climate for pineapple cultivation. The pineapple plants are grown in nutrient-rich soil, absorbing sunlight and natural water sources, which help them develop their signature sweet taste and refreshing aroma.
The Pineapple Cultivation and Care Process
Pineapples have a unique growth cycle. From planting to harvesting, farmers must patiently wait about 18 months. After the plant flowers, it takes another 4 to 5 months for the fruit to mature and reach perfect ripeness.
Throughout this process, farmers use natural farming methods, minimizing chemical use to ensure the best fruit quality without affecting its natural taste. Pest control is also managed using biological methods, helping to protect the environment and maintain a balanced ecosystem.
Every day, agricultural experts at the farm closely monitor the pineapple plants’ development, ensuring they receive the necessary nutrients to produce sweet, juicy fruits. When the harvest time arrives, farmers assess ripeness based on the fruit’s skin color and its distinct fragrance. Only the best pineapples are handpicked to preserve their structure and quality.
Harvesting and Transportation – Preserving Freshness
Pineapple harvesting requires precision and care. A ripe pineapple is slightly golden on the outside, firm, and emits a gentle, sweet aroma. Experienced farmers carefully select the right pineapples to be harvested at the peak of their sweetness with minimal acidity.
Immediately after harvesting, the pineapples are swiftly transported to RITA’s factory to maintain their freshness. The transportation process follows strict preservation standards to ensure the fruits are not bruised or dehydrated. This crucial step helps retain the natural quality of the pineapples before entering the production phase.
From Farm to Factory – The RITA Pineapple Juice Production Process
At the factory, only the freshest and highest-quality pineapples are selected for a closed-loop production process using modern technology. Our goal is to preserve the natural taste and nutritional value of the pineapple, delivering a product that is not only delicious but also beneficial to health.
Steps in Pineapple Juice Production
-
Cleaning and Preprocessing
The pineapples, upon arrival at the factory, undergo a thorough washing process using a sterilized water system. This removes any dirt or bacteria, ensuring food safety. The pineapples are then peeled, with the eyes and core removed, leaving only the golden, juicy flesh.
-
Juice Extraction
Cold-press extraction technology is used to preserve the pineapple’s vitamins and natural enzymes. This method ensures that the juice retains its fresh taste and nutritional content.
-
Gentle Pasteurization
To maintain food safety without compromising the fruit’s natural flavor, RITA Pineapple Juice is processed using modern pasteurization technology. This technique eliminates harmful bacteria while preserving essential nutrients.
-
Bottling and Quality Inspection
The final product is bottled under strict food safety standards and undergoes rigorous quality testing before being released to consumers. This ensures that every bottle of RITA Pineapple Juice meets the highest quality standards.
Health Benefits of Pineapple Juice
More than just a delicious beverage, pineapple juice offers numerous health benefits:
- Rich in Vitamin C: Strengthens the immune system and helps the body fight against infections.
