History

Fontestad is a family business

  • 50,000 m2 stands
  • 900 Ha of orchards
  • 160 million kg of oranges/year

Fontestad is a family business that enjoys great prestige in citrus fruit handling and distribution, following the trail blazed by Vicente Fontestad Planells, who founded the company as a legal entity on 1st October, 1984.

Since then, the company has continued to grow, from its beginnings as a small fruit stand in a market in the 1950’s to a company with facilities covering 50,000m2 stands in Mercamadrid and Perpignan.

Our production totals 160 million kilograms of oranges per year, from 900 Ha of orchards owned and monitored by our company, and distributed over three regions (Valencian Autonomous Community, Andalusia and Murcia) representing 40% of the total volume.

It is precisely Fontestad’s great selection process that enables it to guarantee the best quality and service to its clients; which is its number one priority.
