With the setting of this facility, the largest citrus processing plant in the island, located in the western province of Matanzas, has been able to reduce costs and reduce the time for dispatch.

The citrus juice and fruits sold under the trademark of Cubanita are mostly exported to Europe, with Holland as its main market.

The citrus processing plant of Jagüey Grande, Matanzas, has just processed more than 100,000 tons of citrus fruits, which means a growth by 28,000 tons more than planned for this time of the year.

The enterprise reached extraction levels of juice and essential oils of around 1 ton per every 19 tons processed a figure that matches the best international records in the sector.
