Moorea Juice Factory

The Moorea Juice Factory, widely recognized by its commercial brand name Rotui, has been a cornerstone of the island's economy since its establishment in 1981. Located near the scenic Cook's Bay, the facility processes over 2,000 tons of locally grown pineapples annually, with a focus on the premium "Queen Tahiti" variety. Beyond pineapples, the factory handles a diverse range of tropical fruits including passion fruit, guava, and grapefruit. Visitors are welcome to tour the production lines to observe the transformation of raw fruit into juices, jams, and unique alcoholic beverages such as pineapple wine and liqueurs. The factory serves as a successful model of agro-industrial development in French Polynesia, bridging the gap between traditional farming and modern processing. At the tasting bar, guests can experience the animated flavors of the archipelago while learning about the sustainable practices that support Moorea's farming families and the island's unique ecosystem.
