Area
All EVA Apples are produced in Styria (Austria). The exclusive production of fruit has a long tradition in Styria. Already in times of monarchy apples were exported to the emperor of Russia in wooden barrels.
In the meantime fruit production has changed radically and is up to the highest standards. Not only in production technology there has been an enormous progress but also in the areas of storage and logistics Styria is on the highest levels.
Unchanged of course is the wonderful and unique landscape which is influenced by alpine and Mediterranean climate. We are living fruit production in harmony with nature. This is our answer to international industrial production. Small family owned production units with lovingly cultured orchards embattled in nature. This are the foundations for the production of our premium fruit. An absolutely unique volcanic soil in combination with the alpine and Mediterranean climate make our apples special and give them a unique taste.
