About Mission Produce
From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission
Mission Produce is based in Oxnard, California and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker AVO. The SEC classifies its business as agricultural services. In the fiscal year to 31 October 2025, it reported revenue of $1.39bn and net income of $37.7m. At that date it held total assets of $983.0m and shareholders' equity of $587.3m.

We primarily source, produce, pack and distribute avocados. The avocados we sell are primarily of the Hass variety. We sort and pack avocados and match their specifications to respective customer requirements. We sell both pre-ripe and ripened avocados, and with our network of ripening facilities, we can adjust the level of ripeness to the needs of our customers. Our custom ripening programs provide customers with the option of ordering avocados at five different stages of ripeness – hard, preconditioned, breaking, firm-ripe and ripe – which are delivered on specifically tailored schedules according to stage of ripeness. In 2021, we also began marketing mangos on a limited scale. Mangos are complementary to avocados as they typically have opposite seasons, allowing us to leverage and maintain absorption of our distribution network.
We also provide value-added services including ripening, bagging, custom packaging, logistical management, and quality assurance. In addition, we provide our customers with merchandising and promotional support, insights on market trends and hands-on training to assist with their retail sales of our avocados. For example, we operate category management, merchandising and packaging programs, such as our “Avo Intel,” “Minis—small but mighty,” “Emeralds in the Rough,” “Ready,” “Size Minded,” “Jumbos—more to eat, more to love” and shelf-life extension programs, to promote the sale of avocados that might otherwise be underutilized, to identify ready-to-eat and various size avocados for consumers and to increase shelf life.
