United States · Shares traded on Nasdaq
Mission Produce is a US company, based in Oxnard, California, that sources, produces and distributes avocados and also sells mangos. Its shares trade on Nasdaq. Internationally it operates through Mission de Mexico, Mission Produce Peru, Mission Produce Europe & UK and Mission Produce Asia. In May 2026 it completed the acquisition of Calavo Growers, which added tomatoes, papayas and prepared avocado foods such as guacamole to its business.
Avocados are picked hard and only soften after harvest, so ripening is a central part of the trade. Mission sources fruit from growers and its own operations, then ripens it in its facilities to the stage each customer needs, whether for sale in store, slicing in a restaurant or processing. It markets fruit under names such as World's Finest Avocados and uses its AvoIntel data platform. For retailers and foodservice buyers, this means a steady supply of fruit ripened to order.

Mission Produce's revenue was USD 450.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, ended 31 July 2026. This quarterly figure includes Calavo from the completion of the acquisition on 28 May 2026.
