Neve Yarak, Israel, May 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- N2OFF, Inc.\ (NASDAQ: NITO) (FSE:80W) (“N2OFF” or the “Company”), a pioneer agri-food tech company offering sustainable solutions for agriculture and plant-based food, announced today that its subsidiary Save Foods Ltd. received its first purchase order from a customer in Peru, a leading grower, packer and distributor of avocado.
Save Foods’ eco- friendly solutions can be applied as a near and post-harvest solution for fresh produce to control pathogen contamination and prolong the shelf life of fresh produce while reducing the use of hazardous chemicals.
David Palach, Chief Executive Officer of N2OFF Inc. commented “During the last few years our customer conducted several post-harvest pilots where hundreds of tons of avocado were protected with Save Foods’ solutions. The purchase order from the Peruvian customer was received after the success of Save Food’s first commercial implementation of its solution during January 2024.
Mr. Palach added: The Latin American market represents a tremendous opportunity for Save Foods. With many countries in the region at the forefront of the global fresh produce market, we believe our products hold immense potential, whether utilized post-or near harvest. Our first order from Peru is particularly exhilarating, given the remarkable growth of Peruvian agricultural exports on the global stage, from a modest $645 million in 2000 to an impressive estimated $10.5 billion in 2023.”
