Exportadora Polcura

What Exportadora Polcura does

Exportadora Polcura is a privately held Chilean fresh-fruit exporter founded in 2009 (per company self-description; a secondary source lists 2001) and headquartered in Rancagua, Chile, with a regional office in Lima, Peru. The company sources, exports, and distributes four seasonal fruit categories — grapes (Uvas), kiwi (Kiwi), apples (Manzana), and cherries (Cerezas) — from the exclusive growing valleys of Chile and Peru to international buyers across more than 20 countries spanning the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Markets served include Brazil, Argentina, Peru, the United States, Canada, Mexico, England, the Netherlands, Germany, Russia, Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan, and the Philippines, among others.

The company operates a direct B2B export model with no intermediary distribution channels, maintaining in-house relationships with international fruit distributors and retailers. Beyond trading, Polcura runs a field advisory practice that guides producers through the full production cycle — from planting decisions and crop management through applications and the export process — effectively integrating growers into its commercial operations. The company is actively recruiting additional trustworthy producers to expand its supply base and is positioning its offering around quality, reliability, and long-term trust relationships rather than brand differentiation or technology.

Polcura employs between 11 and 50 people, operates from a single small office in the Rancagua-Olivar area, and maintains a minimal digital footprint (corporate website and basic social media presence). It is independently owned with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, M&A activity, patents, certifications, or public financial disclosures. Its revenue model is transaction-based on fruit exports, supplemented by professional-services revenue from field advisory work, with both pricing and revenue conducted under quote-based B2B negotiations.
