With the situation generated by Covid-19 and the awareness of the importance of maintaining food safety also in the fruit section, purchasing managers of supermarkets and greengrocers are changing their purchasing policies on split fruits such as melon, watermelon or pumpkin. These processes are carried out in unhygienic bakeries and spaces that do not comply with the minimum food safety protocols. Fortunately, these lines of work are changing. It is time to count on facilities such as the Sala Blanca de Peris in Albuixech (Valencia), which has increased its production volume in recent weeks, for its cut fruit supplies. Let us hope that this responsible awareness of the importance of offering products on the shelf that are produced under safe conditions will continue this trend in the future.
Food safety is also a priority in fruit and vegetable stores.
