Premium produce for global markets

ABOUT THE YUKON GROUP

Rooted in Africa.

Reaching the World

Since 1991, Yukon has been building a vertically integrated fresh produce group. We manage the entire supply chain from growing to route to market — farming, processing and delivering premium specialty produce from South Africa to the world.

Our farms and packhouses are certified to the highest international standards, working daily with the world’s most discerning retail and foodservice customers.

Specialty Vegetables

Our founding business and longest-standing range. Starting with the production of baby carrots at Yukon Farms, today we offer more than 20 baby vegetable varieties all year round under our recognisable yellow Yukon brand.

Exotic Fruits & Berries

A category gaining momentum, with a focus on dragon fruit, passion fruit, prickly pears and, following our merger with Berry Select, raspberries. We bring our eye for detail to these somewhat overlooked fruits — offering consistent, premium quality to our customers throughout the season.

Edible Flowers

A specialty range that complements our offering for foodservice customers.

PREMIUM PRODUCTs

REACHING OUR CUSTOMERS

Our supply base is predominantly South African, geographically spread across the country’s key growing regions to ensure a dependable, year-round offer. We complement this with other African countries and Spain.

Locally, we supply South Africa’s leading retailers daily with the full Yukon range. For export, fresh produce moves daily from our airport depots at OR Tambo International in Johannesburg and Cape Town International, supported by dedicated quality and technical teams at both locations.
