APPLE VARIETIES

At San Clemente we are known for always being at the forefront in the search for new varieties.  This allows us to renovate our range of products for the export market and reaffirm our leadership position in the apple industry.

Producing new varieties is a great challenge that leads to great opportunities for our farms and growers in the technical evaluation stage, the planning of the variety’s commercial development, as well as the strategic management for its exploitation in Chile.
