How Fruit Packing Warehouses Use Technology - Nanalyze

Walk into any grocery store in America and you'll find a variety of fresh apples for consumption. It's remarkable to think how developed markets have managed to secure the availability of apples year-round. That miracle is made possible through lots of behind-the-scenes work that takes place at packing houses to ensure only the best fruit makes its way to grocery store produce sections. Take Washington State for example, where 58% of the apples grown in the United States are produced at a value of $2.5 billion yearly. Somewhere around 100 packing warehouses across the state work almost year-round to provide apples for domestic consumption with 30% of the product getting exported across the globe.
