Chile is a protected environment given its geographical position.
It has the Andes to its East and the Pacific Ocean to its West as a natural barrier that protects the country from agricultural pests and diseases. Chile’s climate features the warm, dry summers and cold, rainy winters. The interaction between the effects
of the sea and those of the Andes result in a growing season that revels in bright sunny days and temperatures that take a dramatic dip each night to create the broad daily temperature oscillation that fruits need to develop high levels of antioxidants.
Besides ideal climatic conditions
we have exceptionally fertile soil and pristine water which results in obtaining raw materials of
high quality nutrients and in the compounds that we extract. Thus, fruits from Chile have a higher concentration of active molecules that are of higher functional benefit than fruits from any other part of the world.
Chile’s climate is highly influenced by the cooling effect of the Antartic Circumpolar Current and the Humboldt Current in the Pacific Ocean that begin in the icy waters near Antarctica and flows up the western coast of South America. During the day, sea breezes carried by the cold Humboldt Current penetrate inland, and each night, cold air descends from the snow- covered peaks of the Andes.
