Capsicum in Australia
Capsicum is bought by about 77 % of Australian households and sells year-round, peaking in summer (AUSVEG). Bowen and Bundaberg in Queensland dominate winter supply; Victoria, NSW, SA and protected-cropping glasshouses supply the rest of the year.
Capsicums are chilling-sensitive: storage below about 7 °C causes pitting and decay once fruit warms, so cool rooms are run warmer than for most vegetables.
From receival to invoice
- ReceiveReceived by grower, block or glasshouse, colour and variety.
- StoreCool storage around 7–10 °C to avoid chilling injury, FIFO by lot.
- Grade & prepareWashing, colour sorting and grading by size and shape.
- Pack & shipCartons, flow-packs and tri-colour packs for retail and food service.
