Tabetech Collaborates with Ozler Tarim for Fruit Export Quality Control

On January 27, 2026, Tabetech Co., Ltd. entered into a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Ozler Tarim, a fruit export company in Turkey. This partnership aims to maintain quality through various stages of the fruit export process, including during storage and transportation. The trial will be carried out within Turkey, led by Tabetech, in collaboration with local exporters, specifically addressing the operational conditions in real export scenarios to assess both the efficacy and feasibility of the applied technology.

Overview of the Initiative

This project focuses on several critical aspects of the fruit supply chain in Turkey:

• - Preservation of export quality and mitigation of degradation of fruits
• - Suitability of operational conditions during transportation and storage
• - Ease of integration into local operations and reproducibility
• - Feasibility of a model that does not rely on chemicals for export and storage

The initiative is part of a broader project supported by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) through its 'Global South Future Co-Creation Subsidy Program' under the Fiscal Year 2025 supplemental budget.

Purpose and Background of the MoU

Recognizing the realities of fruit exports in Turkey, Tabetech and Ozler Tarim have established a cooperative framework aimed at conducting verification in alignment with the specificities of the export supply chain. The signing of the MoU aims to ensure smooth progression of the verification process in real export environments, while also clarifying collaborative relationships with a future commercialization perspective.

Publication of Subsidy Information

As a selected company under the 'Global South Future Co-Creation Subsidy Program,' information about Tabetech is publicly available on the official METI website. The link to this information can be found here.

Future Prospects

Through the insights gained from this verification process, Tabetech aims to explore expansion possibilities into Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, starting from Turkey as a key hub. This approach reflects a strategic vision to enhance the agricultural supply chain and improve quality assurance in fruit exports on a global scale.
