LUKOS AGROTHE POWER OF REAL ECONOMY
THE COMPANY
Lukos Agro is specialized in processing fruits and vegetables into high quality concentrated puree. Given the strong leadership in industrial refining of agricultural raw materials, we guarantee products that only few manufacturers in the global markets are able to produce.
The company is fully owned by Lukos Group SA which represents the holding company for a series of investment projects in CE Europe.
LOCATION
We are located in the nearby of Murska Sobota, in the Pomurje Region of Slovenia - on the border of Austria, Hungary and Croatia. Considering its ideal geographical location and a centuries-old tradition of growing fruits, this is the perfect location for our production activities.
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Lukos Agro has a low environmental impact factory that covers all power needs from roof PV installations, uses advanced water filtering technology and natural gas as fuel for steam generation.
RAW MATERIAL
The production cycle begins with the careful selection of seasonal fruits derived from our own orchards (120 ha) and the Gori!ko Natural Park.
In order to obtain the best possible products, Lukos Agro is permanently dedicated to the reconstruction of “old orchards” and the economic development of the whole region.

Apple puree is often used as a base for wide range of products such as smoothies, fillings, shakes and yoghurts.
Combined with other fruits our Apple Cream™ has a wonderful creamy texture and the natural sweetness from apples underlines other fruit flavors making them even tastier.
Because of the natural density of Apple Cream™, mixing it with other types of fruit gives long-term stability to the product and solves the smoothies’ problem of separation of the pulp and juice after a short downtime.
