At CitroSul, we believe that good partnerships are built on trust, quality, and commitment. See what our customers and partners have to say about their experience working with us.
Headquartered in Centenário, Rio Grande do Sul, and equipped with state-of-the-art industrial facilities, we operate from cultivation to fruit processing, with environmental responsibility and a positive impact on the lives of local producers.
CitroSul is the result of a partnership with the Moreto Group, created to strengthen citrus farming in the Centenário–RS region. Our project began in 2023 with the installation of a modern orange processing plant for the production of FCOJ, focusing on agricultural diversification and the enhancement of small farms. We seek to be more than just an industry: we want to be partners with producers, offering technical support, marketing guarantees, and promoting sustainable development in the countryside.
We work with selected oranges from partner producers who adopt sustainable cultivation practices and strict phytosanitary control. Harvesting is carried out at the ideal point of ripeness, prioritizing high soluble solids content and uniform fruit quality.
At the automated industrial plant, the fruit undergoes washing, selection, and extraction. The concentrated juice (FCOJ) is obtained through extraction and vacuum evaporation processes, preserving nutrients and sensory characteristics. The peel is used to obtain limonene oil through steam distillation, ensuring purity and yield.
All orange waste, such as pulp and cells, is reused in industrial processes, especially in the formulation of animal feed and composting, reinforcing our commitment to the circular economy and environmental sustainability.
Each batch undergoes rigorous laboratory testing (physical-chemical, microbiological, and sensory). After approval, the products are securely packaged and stored under controlled conditions, ensuring quality until they reach the end customer, both in Brazil and abroad.
