Dole Fresh Fruit and Vegetables

Dole is one of the world's most iconic produce brands, with a history dating back to 1851 in Hawaii. Originally founded as Castle & Cooke and later expanded by James Dole with the Hawaiian Pineapple Company, the brand became synonymous with tropical fruits, particularly pineapples and bananas.

Today, Dole's manufacturing and sourcing operations are truly global, spanning across North America, Latin America, Europe, and Asia to ensure year-round availability of fresh produce. In 2021, a landmark merger between Total Produce plc and Dole Food Company created Dole plc, a global leader in the fresh produce industry.

The global entity, Dole plc, is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. This consolidation brought together two of the world's leading fresh produce companies to streamline a highly complex global supply chain that serves over 75 countries.
