Family Values

Kopke is first and foremost a family company. As a third-generation family-owned business, Kopke began with a man pursuing his dreams while doing what he knew best: importing and exporting the world’s finest fruits and produce. Family values such as integrity, honesty, and hard-work are the cornerstones on which the company was built. In an ever-changing market, Kopke has combined its traditional values with key modern components—such as quality assurance, sustainability, and innovation—to secure its place in the produce world. While Kopke is dedicated to tradition, we remain flexible, responsive to changing markets, and carefully attuned to our customers’ needs and wants. This allows Kopke to be the #1 importer of Chilean fruit, as well as a leader in importing produce from Peru, Argentina, South Africa, Mexico along with various other countries.

Innovation is viewed as the application of better solutions that meet new requirements, unarticulated needs, or existing market needs in the business world. This is exactly what Kopke strives for in the agricultural market. Kopke uses new technologies, practices, and standards to remain cutting-edge, while always bringing the highest quality produce to our customers. Inventive packaging, state-of-the-art shipping, and ground-breaking growing techniques guarantee that our customers remain satisfied and that our products remain the best in the business.
