Donald M. Gibson – The Dalles Fruit Company – Usa

The Dalles Fruit Company chooses Unitec technology for its cherries.

“By using Unitec technologies we are obtaining significant benefits: more accurate sizing, the ability to defect sort with less manual labor, the ability to detect the internal condition of the cherry with the infrared cameras. This allows us to discard the overripe cherries, which was not possible in the manual sorting system we were using.

Our clients are growers, and the people that buy our cherries. The growers are getting a much better job at sorting, we are able to deliver a better product to our consumers, so I think it’s a win-win.”
