Problem
Post-harvest losses due to spoilage and disease significantly impact the shelf life and marketability of produce and flowers. Traditional preservation methods often rely on energy-intensive cold storage or chemical treatments that can alter product quality or raise consumer concerns.
Solution
KaFresh offers an all-natural, edible post-harvest spray formulated from four food-grade, plant-based oils. This proprietary coating creates a thin, soluble barrier on the surface of produce and flowers, effectively inhibiting fungal growth and preventing spoilage. By utilizing this edible technology, KaFresh extends the shelf life of harvested goods by 2-3 times without altering taste or color. This approach reduces the dependency on cold storage infrastructure and chemical preservatives, providing a sustainable and safe method for maintaining product freshness.
Target Audience
KaFresh targets stakeholders across horticultural value chains, including growers, distributors, and retailers seeking to minimize post-harvest losses and enhance product longevity.
