Hello awoo:

Are you looking for companies in the U.S. (as in your previous
question) or are you looking for companies worldwide?

Thanks.

Hi -
 
That's potentially 100 pieces of information that might have to be
sourced from different places.  You might consider increasing the
price of your question to $100-$150.

Hi -
 
When you say "producers," are you talking actual growers, or companies
that distribute these fruits/vegetables?

Producers may also be the growers and the shippers, such as Chaquita
bananas.  They own multiple farmers and they ship and market it as
Chaquita.  Ultimatly I am looking for the top companies that have
their sticker on the fruit.

Interesting question.
I'm finding lots of information about fruit/vegetable brands in
general - but there are a couple of challenges -

1) Dole, Del Monte, Chiquite, Jaffa are all top global fruit brands -
but they don't necessarily break out numbers for each type of fruit or
vegetable they produce.  I could therefore provide you with an
extensive list of top global brands without the breakdown.
2) There seems to exist more data on US then globally - would such
data still be acceptable?

thanks,

Yes US data would be fine.  I am coming to a close on the research and
need the information as soon as you can post it.  I have done the
research myself and will be using your info as a check for my own
research.

A bit of help to all interested researchers - the name "Chaquita" is misspelled.
