Although China is known to be a hotbed of knock-off products, Nongfu Fruits is not really concerned about this problem. "Our company is the only authorized dealer of Disney Fruit in China. Above that, the Walt Disney Company does a good job in copyright protection."
Nongfu Fruits has a special way of producing these "Disney coconuts". "Here is how we produce them; we will store all the fruit together in our packaging factory after the harvesting. Then we classify these coconuts into different categories according to their shape and size in order to use laser marking and package it with Mickey Mouse patterns. Since laser marking can save material and cost, it is very environmental friendly. For the moment we are only packaging our green coconuts."
"These coconuts are expected to be very popular in China since they are marked with Disney images. We are looking forward to seeing other fruit with these Disney markings. It is not only cute but very environmental-friendly."
