Farming & sourcing

gioithieucongty09.mauwebdep.com.vn — Sat, 24 Oct 2026 14:28:11 +0000

Every Thalvora product begins in the field. From a 14-household vegetable cooperative in Duc Trong in 1998, we have built a network of 12,500 hectares of partner farmland worked by 18,000 households across Lam Dong, Dong Thap, Tien Giang, Ben Tre, Dak Lak and Binh Phuoc. Thalvora does not buy on the spot market: every growing area operates under an offtake contract, an agreed crop calendar and a dedicated agronomist.

A transparent partnership model

Long-term offtake contracts of three to five years, with a floor price published before each season and adjusted upwards when market prices rise.
Input support: certified seed, microbial organic fertiliser and biological crop protection, repaid after harvest at no interest.
A field team of 210 agronomists and technicians who visit farms on a regular schedule and coach growers on VietGAP and GlobalG.A.P. practices.
Payment within seven days of a lot passing quality inspection at the collection point.

Farming to the rhythm of each region

On the Lam Dong plateau, temperate vegetables such as spinach, cauliflower and baby carrots are rotated year-round in greenhouses and open fields, avoiding the peak rains from June to September. In Cau Dat, Arabica coffee is selectively hand-picked from October to January. In Dong Thap and Tien Giang, growers of Hoa Loc and Cat Chu mangoes, passion fruit and jackfruit use staggered flowering so that our factories receive steady supply for ten months of the year.

QR-code traceability

Since 2021, every Thalvora growing area has been digitised. Each plot carries its own identifier, and farm diaries, spray records, harvest dates and residue test results are logged through a mobile app used by the growers themselves. By scanning the QR code on the pack, consumers can see the growing area, the season and the processing plant behind the product in their hands.

Regenerative agriculture

Cover crops of legumes and rice straw mulch to reduce erosion on the sloping land of the Central Highlands.
Sensor-guided drip and sprinkler irrigation, using around 30% less water than flood irrigation.
Compost made from mango peel, coffee husk and passion fruit pulp residues from our own plants.
Integrated pest management, favouring biological traps and natural predators.

The best farmers are the ones who know in advance what they will grow, who they will sell to and at what price. Our job is to make that certain.

By 2028, Thalvora plans to add a further 1,500 hectares certified to EU Organic and Rainforest Alliance standards, prioritising cooperatives run by young farmers.

Fruit & vegetable processing

gioithieucongty09.mauwebdep.com.vn — Sat, 24 Oct 2026 14:28:11 +0000

Fruit and vegetables are Thalvora's founding and largest business. Our two plants in Duc Trong (Lam Dong) and Tan Phuoc (Tien Giang) process some 57,000 tonnes of raw material a year, producing 175 products under the Thalvora and Thalvora Farm labels for modern retail, restaurants, industrial catering and importers in Japan, South Korea and Europe.

Fresh-cut and prepared vegetables

Baby vegetables, hydroponic lettuce and our ready-cut vegetable kits are harvested in the early morning and vacuum-cooled within four hours. They are then washed through three tanks of chilled water at 2–4°C, cut, packed in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and moved straight to cold storage. An unbroken cold chain keeps them crisp and naturally coloured for five to seven days on shelf.

IQF freezing

Our individually quick frozen (IQF) line handles 6 tonnes an hour of peas, sweetcorn, cauliflower, mango and passion fruit. Core temperature reaches -18°C in under 15 minutes and pieces stay free-flowing, which suits industrial kitchens and ice cream and yoghurt manufacturers.

Dried fruit

Low-temperature soft drying for mango, pineapple and guava: 10–14 hours at 55–65°C, preserving a chewy texture and natural sweet-sour taste, with added sugar controlled recipe by recipe.
Vacuum frying for jackfruit, sweet potato and banana: cooked in a vacuum chamber at 85–95°C for a crisp bite, bright colour and low oil content.
Freeze drying for strawberries and red dragon fruit used in cereals and drinks.

Batch-by-batch quality control

An in-house laboratory tests every incoming lot for pesticide residues, heavy metals and microbiology.
Metal detection and X-ray inspection on every packing line.
HACCP records and lot codes printed on pack and linked to farm data through the QR code.

Serving business customers

Alongside our own brands, both plants produce to specification for importers and restaurant chains: dicing, slicing to a required thickness, custom dried fruit blends and pack sizes from 20 g to 10 kg. Every new order begins with a trial batch, samples and a certificate of analysis before full production, and delivery schedules are planned around the harvest season of each fruit.

We choose the processing method that keeps the most of what the fruit tasted like in the orchard, and only then think about how it looks on the shelf.

By-products such as mango peel, jackfruit seeds and vegetable trimmings are turned into compost and animal feed, bringing by-product utilisation to 92% in 2025.

Beverages & coffee

gioithieucongty09.mauwebdep.com.vn — Sat, 24 Oct 2026 14:28:11 +0000

In 2017 Thalvora opened its beverage plant in Binh Duong and launched its first juice range. Beverages have since become the company's fastest-growing category, with 85 products spanning fruit juices, coconut water, fruit teas and coffee. The plant has an annual capacity of 180 million bottles and sits about three hours by road from our fruit-growing areas in Tien Giang and Ben Tre.

Pure fruit juices

Passion fruit, mango, guava and pineapple are cold-pressed, filtered and flash pasteurised using a high-temperature short-time (HTST) process to keep a fresh taste. Our not-from-concentrate range contains no reconstituted juice and no artificial flavourings. A separate HPP range is treated at 6,000 bar of pressure without heat and distributed through the cold chain to convenience stores and food service.

Bottled fresh coconut water

Green coconuts from partner growers in Ben Tre are opened within 24 hours of picking, microfiltered and aseptically filled. Each bottle states its growing area and harvest date, which can be verified via the QR code.

Cau Dat Arabica coffee

Selective picking of ripe red cherries at 1,500–1,650 metres, from October to January.
Washed and honey processing at our Cau Dat station, with 18–25 days of drying on raised beds.
Lot-specific roast profiles, one-way valve packaging and release within seven days of roasting.
Around 2,200 tonnes of green coffee a year, 40% of which is exported as specialty green beans.

Responsible packaging and production

PET bottles containing 30% recycled plastic, with a target of 50% by 2028.
Wastewater treated to Column A standard, with cooling and floor-cleaning water reused.
A 2.4 MWp rooftop solar array that covers about 22% of the plant's electricity demand.

Routes to market

Our juices and coconut water are sold through major supermarket chains, convenience stores and e-commerce marketplaces, while the HPP range and roasted coffee mainly serve hotels, coffee chains and restaurants. For food service customers, Thalvora offers large-format packs, custom roast profiles and on-site barista training for counter staff.

A good juice should taste of the season its fruit came from. So we do not hide the season; we print it on the label.

Our product development centre in Binh Duong trials around 40 new formulations a year, working with importers in Japan and Europe to adjust sweetness and acidity to each market's palate.

Convenience foods & seasonings

gioithieucongty09.mauwebdep.com.vn — Sat, 24 Oct 2026 14:28:11 +0000

Vietnamese families are busier than ever, yet still want meals that taste of home. Thalvora's convenience foods and seasonings business grew out of that need and now covers 160 products, including instant porridge and soup, concentrated seasonings, dipping sauces, nuts and cereals. Our lines in Duc Trong and Tien Giang produce around 9,500 tonnes of finished goods a year, with 98% of key ingredients sourced from the company's partner farms.

Core product groups

Instant brown rice porridge made from Dong Thap brown rice, fully cooked and then dried; just add boiling water and wait three minutes.
Concentrated pho seasoning made with cinnamon, star anise, black cardamom, charred ginger and charred shallots, reduced at low pressure to capture the aroma of a long-simmered broth.
Salted roasted cashews from Binh Phuoc, hot-air roasted and optically sorted.
Oat and dried fruit cereal combining rolled oats with Thalvora's own mango, pineapple and freeze-dried strawberries (coming soon).
Ready-cut soup vegetable kits portioned for two to three people and sold through the cold chain.

How we develop recipes

Short ingredient lists, favouring ingredients consumers recognise.
Step-by-step reductions in salt and sugar across existing ranges, with clear nutrition information on pack.
No synthetic preservatives in our concentrated seasonings; shelf life comes from pasteurisation and hermetic packing.
Every new recipe is tasted by an internal sensory panel and consumer groups in the north, centre and south.

Safe production

Dry processing areas are separated from fresh preparation, with humidity control and positive air pressure to limit cross-contamination. Products containing cashews run on dedicated lines and carry clear allergen labelling. All processes operate under HACCP and ISO 22000:2018 and are re-audited every year.

Packaging and shelf life

Porridge and seasonings are packed in multi-layer pouches with moisture and oxygen barriers, keeping flavour stable for nine to twelve months at room temperature without refrigeration. Cashews are nitrogen-flushed to slow rancidity. We are moving the entire dry range to recyclable mono-material packaging by 2028.

Convenience is not a compromise. A sachet of pho seasoning should still start with shallots and ginger charred over a real flame.

The category serves modern retail, e-commerce and food service, with bulk pack sizes for restaurants and institutional kitchens.

Distribution & export

gioithieucongty09.mauwebdep.com.vn — Sat, 24 Oct 2026 14:28:11 +0000

A product only creates value when it reaches the consumer in the best possible condition. Thalvora's distribution and export business manages the whole journey from factory gate to shelf, serving 160,000 points of sale across Vietnam and importers in 28 countries in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and North America.

Domestic network

Modern retail: listed with major supermarket chains, convenience store chains and specialist fresh food stores nationwide.
General trade: more than 220 provincial distributors serving wet markets, grocery stores and dealers.
Food service: prepared vegetables, juices and coffee for hotels, restaurants, coffee chains and industrial caterers.
E-commerce: official stores on leading marketplaces and our own website, with same-day delivery in central Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.

Cold-chain infrastructure

Four central warehouses in Duc Trong, Tien Giang, Binh Duong and Bac Ninh are linked by a refrigerated fleet fitted with GPS and real-time temperature sensors. The Bac Ninh distribution centre, opened in 2025, has cut delivery of fresh vegetables to northern provinces to under 36 hours, and every domestic order now reaches every province within 48 hours.

Export

Our first vegetable shipment to Japan in 2009 started Thalvora's export journey. Today exports account for around 32% of revenue, led by dried fruit, IQF frozen fruit, juices, green Arabica coffee and cashews.

GlobalG.A.P., BRCGS, FSSC 22000 and EU Organic certification to meet the requirements of demanding importers.
Private label services and packaging to destination-market specifications.
An export team speaking Japanese, Korean, English and German, supporting customers from first samples to customs documentation.

Data for every point of sale

Our order management system connects directly with distributors and retail chains, updating stock levels, expiry dates and sell-through store by store. Fresh vegetables and chilled drinks are replenished to actual demand rather than on fixed schedules, reducing in-store waste and keeping products fresh on the shelf.

A container of dried mango arriving in Osaka carries the story of the mango growers of Dong Thap. We want that story told accurately.
