Director

Resulting from the gathering of several apple growers from the South of France, Pominter became a major private player amongst French apple exporters. The company, based in Montauban, Tarn et Garonne region, works hand-in-hand with historical local growers to value their harvests and ship their quality apples throughout the world.

Pominter expanded its footprint on international markets by relying on historical customers in Europe, Middle East, Africa and South East Asia. In addition, Pominter always was amongst the pioneers on newly opened international markets thanks to its flexible structure and unique apple varieties allowing us to diversify our offer.

Values and Commitments

For the last 40 years, growing and shipping fresh fruits, especially apples, has been Pominter core business. Pominter possesses a real expertise and has been constantly innovating to improve the quality of its products, packaging options, logistic operations, as well as marketing.

“Human” is a core value at Pominter.
Recognizing and emphasizing the men and women, their key impact on the company’s capital, as well as their invaluable expertise is something that we always strive for.

The notion of “terroir” (local land conservation) and the constant strive for a balanced taste in our apples, pushed us toward using well thought-out and environment-friendly agricultural and daily operational practices.

Ever Since our incorporation we have been engaged actors to reduce the environmental footprint that our activities yield. This commitment is materialized by concrete actions at every step of our business, such as different transportation modes (i.e. rail-road-sea) that we chose to deliver our merchandise with. Additionally we introduced a couple years ago a company-wide plan to shrink our carbon footprint.
Our agricultural expertise coupled with our fruit cultivation “know-how” gives us a leadership position. Our techniques are exported abroad in numerous locations in both the North and South Hemispheres.

Our farming methods and our requirements are closely monitored and regularly controlled by external organisms that certify our excellence in our field.
