Tropicsun currently has 275,000   bushels of citrus at the grove in Mt. Dora, 400,000 bushels at the grove in   Eustis, and 300,000 at the grove in Clermont. Tropicsun has citrus processing   plants in Ocala, Orlando, and Leesburg with processing capacities to handle   200,000 bushels, 600,000 bushels, and 225,000 bushels, respectively.   Tropicsun contracts with a local trucking company to transport its fruit from   the groves to the processing plants.
