Spain runs one of Europe's largest juice, dairy and ice cream industries — and even as a major fruit grower itself, its manufacturers buy heavily at origin for what the peninsula does not produce at scale: sour cherry, black mulberry, apricot and fig from Anatolia, plus tropical purees and concentrates. Scala Nuova supplies Fruit Shells to Spanish manufacturers and importers from Türkiye, on one of the shortest sea lanes in the business.
Compliance is EU-native from the start: products are specified against EU General Food Law (Regulation 178/2002) and harmonized EU maximum residue levels, with per-lot traceability and COA — documentation structured the way AESAN-supervised quality departments expect to file it. Quality systems across the chain operate to IFS, FSSC 22000, BRC and ISO 22000, with Halal, Kosher and organic (EU-Bio) options available.
Logistics are Spain's strong suit in this trade: both countries sit on the same sea, so containers loading in Istanbul or Mersin reach Valencia or Barcelona in roughly 8 to 12 days — Algeciras adds a major transshipment gateway for the south. Aseptic drums travel ambient; IQF fruit moves in reefer containers at -18°C, with full-truck reefer available on request.

Scala Nuova supplies frozen natural fruit shells as ready-to-fill serving vessels for foodservice, patisserie and ice-cream makers: hollowed pineapple, coconut, orange and melon shells. Cleaned and frozen ready to fill with ice cream, sorbet, mousse and plated desserts, they give gelaterias, restaurants, HORECA and dessert manufacturers a striking, sustainable, biodegradable natural presentation. Supplied frozen in whole and half formats to specification, each lot with COA and full specification.
Fruit Shells moves to Spain under an unbroken cold chain: the product travels in reefer containers from our facility to your cold store, never leaving its temperature band. On this lane that makes reefer capacity and plug-in time at the port — not sailing frequency — the things to plan a programme around.
