The avocado tree can grow up to 15 metres tall, and originally comes from southern Mexico. More than 10,000 years ago, the Aztecs were already using the avocado as a foodstuff. Nowadays, the tree grows in Central America, Africa and many other tropical and subtropical countries.
The avocado has the highest fat content of all known fruit and vegetable varieties. It is also used as a cold-pressed cooking oil, and in the cosmetics and pharmaceuticals industry.
Avocado oil - like olive oil - is enjoying a high level of popularity. Both markets are growing, and extracting avocado oil can be compared to extracting olive oil.
