To manage and better enhance the fruit and vegetables, the wine grapes and the oil conferred by its members, Agrintesa has equipped itself with efficient processing and packaging facilities, applies the most modern techniques of wine production and has created around if a vast network of commercial and consortium collaborations. The wide range of fruit and vegetables is marketed through the Alegra business unit which represents the operational-commercial arm for Agrintesa. Alegra is a reference point for Italian fruit and vegetables and a privileged partner for modern Italian and European distribution (Alegra, Cogli and Gusta, Brio brands); over 50% of production is exported to 55 countries.. Agrintesa is also part of Valfrutta Fresco, and JINGOLD S.p.a. in order to always offer premium Italian fruit to its customers. Agrintesa has been an accredited producer of the New Zealand Zespri (Zespri Green and Gold brands).

In 2015 Agrintesa was among the companies promoting Opera sca” – the first company in Italy specialized in the marketing of pears of its members. In the same year an agreement was signed by virtue of which Alegra markets all the fruit and vegetable production of the OSAS cooperative in Castrovillari (peaches, nectarines, apricots, clementines and oranges). The important agreement allows our customers to have a wide range of products throughout the year, combining the experience and service of Alegra and the recognized quality of the production of Agrintesa and OSAS. Agrintesa is also associated with Apo-Conerpo, the largest EU Producer Organization (OP) and also a member of Conserve Italia,the first fruit and vegetable processing group in Europe (Cirio, Valfrutta, Yoga, Derby, Jolly Colombani, Mon Jardin brands) to which it dedicates most of his production with industrial use and with which it has developed projects of cultivation of selected fruit to obtain the best results in the preparation of syrups and juices.
