AGRI Developments this year also increased their collaboration with the city through the exchange of agricultural advances and working with the Tourism Office to promote its developments as an ecotourism site.

Hass Avocado Development
Hass avocados are a relatively new product in Asia but consumption is quickly growing with the region containing some of the fastest growing markets in the world. Growth across Asia over the past five years has surpassed 50% annually in certain key markets, three times faster than in Europe and five times faster than the United States, the largest consumer in the world. Hass Avocado production is currently centred in the Americas with the United States and Latin American countries such as Mexico, Pure and Chile supplying the bulk of Hass Avocados sold in Asia.

AGRI Developments aims to change the supply demand regional disparity. Its operations in the Philippines provide a key competitive advantage enabling it to supply the region at a lower cost as well as faster, due to its strategic location near key import markets. The Philippines is the only country currently capable of commercially producing Hass Avocados in Asia.
