History
Historia
- Beginnings BusinessIt all started with Cítricos Gustavo Ferrada in the 1950's. A family business dedicated to the marketing and export of fruit and vegetables in the national and international market. More than 70 years of history have made our experience in the sale and distribution of oranges, all citrus fruits, fruits and vegetables, our main standard in our beginnings. Thousands of tons of citrus fruits that are still marketed annually guarantee Gustavo Ferrada's quality and good service.
- The Company's HistoryWith the company already more than consolidated, we broadened our horizons by creating Gufresco to be able to manufacture natural orange juice and distribute it through the Horeca channel. After the production of natural orange juice, we started with other juices such as multi-fruit juices and, following market demand, we introduced the IV Range of fruit and later vegetables to our product catalogue in order to continue growing and create an exclusive line to make pineapple cylinders for the retail channel. A few years later, we expanded the company by creating a V Range workshop and started to offer complete salads. We have a commercial network that allows us to attend to all customer demands in an agile, professional and direct way, a network that grows every day with the aim of offering an increasingly complete and competitive service and for this we created the company RapidFresh, specialised in refrigerated and sustainable logistics. The three companies currently make up GFUnion, a food group specialising in food service.
- FacilitiesGFUnion's headquarters are located in the Mediterranean town of Burriana, in Castellón, a city with a long tradition in citrus production and export, thanks to its unbeatable geographical location and climate. With facilities of more than 14,000 square metres, the company has consolidated its position as a leader in the manufacture of juices, cut fruit and vegetables and the preparation of salads and sandwiches.
