HOW TO STORE
PEARS
The pears continue their ripening when they are detached from the tree, and for this reason, it is better to buy them when they are not yet completely mature.
To better store the pears and maintain their moisture, it is recommended to place them into paper bags.
It is important to remember that pears produce ethylene, the natural gas of fruit, which accelerates the process of ripening the fruits that are close to them.
The pears are very used in different sweet recipes, such as the cake pears and chocolate. A pears’ peculiarity is that they combine well with cheese.

The pear is a fruit native to the south-eastern areas of Europe and the western parts of Asia.
​
Its cultivation is widespread on all continents.

In Italy, the pear is cultivated especially in the northern regions such as Emilia-Romagna, Veneto, Trentino-Alto Adige and Piemonte.
There are many varieties of pears, even depending on the time of year, and we mainly offer: Coscia, William's, Abate and Red Bartlett.

LOLA pears arrive at our headquarters after making a 25-day trip.
LOLA pears are then distributed with personalized packaging to wholesalers, shops, supermarkets, big distribution and fruit and vegetable markets.
