Comit Farm's onion processing line at Virginia has the capacity to pack around 100 tonnes of onions each day.

After arriving at the Virginia complex, the outer husks and stems of onions are removed by sophisticated machinery. Onions are then sized using a state-of-the-art onion sizer, which allows for precise specifications and accuracy in size.

Advanced computer-controlled packaging technology is then used to bag the produce, while a thorough three-stage inspection process finally checks the onions for absolute premium quality.
