Natavo Avocado will present its patented non-browning avocado at IFE 2026, introducing UK food businesses to a 100% natural solution designed to overcome one of the industry’s most persistent ingredient challenges.

Taking place at Excel London from 30 March to 01 April 2026, IFE brings together suppliers and buyers from across retail, wholesale and foodservice. On Stand N2657, Natavo Avocado will demonstrate how its innovation enables consistent, scalable use of avocado across multiple applications.

Developed by Naturo Technologies, Natavo Avocado uses a patented process to naturally deactivate the enzyme responsible for browning, without the use of chemicals, additives or preservatives. The result is an IQF avocado product that remains fresh, green and visually appealing for up to 10 days after thawing, while maintaining the taste and texture of fresh avocado .

The range includes sliced, diced, chunk and smashed avocado formats, all portion-controlled and ready to use. Designed for high-volume production environments, the product is suited to applications including sushi, salads, poke bowls, sandwiches, wraps, Mexican dishes and ready meals.

Produced in BRC-certified facilities in Mexico and South Africa, Natavo Avocado offers a reliable, year-round supply model that supports consistency and scalability for manufacturers and foodservice operators. The product is already supplied to customers in more than 15 countries worldwide.

Ross Harris, Director at Naturo Technologies, said: “Avocado is hugely popular with consumers but notoriously difficult for food businesses to manage consistently at scale. Natavo Avocado removes that unpredictability and allows manufacturers and foodservice operators to use avocado reliably while maintaining quality and visual appeal.”

The innovation addresses a long-standing challenge in food production, where fresh avocado can brown within 30 to 60 minutes once cut, leading to waste, inconsistency and added processing costs. By eliminating this issue naturally, Natavo Avocado enables new product development opportunities and improved operational efficiency.

UK visitors to IFE will be able to meet the Natavo team alongside its distribution partner, Food Team International, to explore how the product can be integrated into manufacturing and foodservice operations.

Mark Roscoe, Managing Director at Food Team International, said: “Natavo Avocado isn’t just another innovation; it’s a much-needed leap forward for sustainability, consistency and profitability in foodservice and food manufacturing businesses.”

Natavo Avocado has received international recognition for its technology, including acknowledgement from major food innovation awards, reflecting its relevance to modern food production and supply chains
