New line of freeze-dried fruit
Fruit 2.0 is fat free, gluten free, and 100% real fruit with no added sugar or colours. Freeze drying is a state-of-the-art process that is better at maintaining the nutritional value and pure flavours of fresh fruit than dried, fried and baked methods.
In a variety of exciting fruit items – Fuji Apple slices, Banana slices, Strawberry slices and Red Seedless Grape slices – Fruit 2.0 comes in vibrant and colourful bags, making healthy snacking exciting for kids and adults alike!
“We are launching this campaign on a national level and bringing a line of new items that work for big retailers, convenience stores, natural food stores and independent food channels alike. Sunkist Fruit 2.0 is a focused product line with the goal in mind of offering a high velocity, low SKU intensive program to enhance retailer produce offerings in a time when consumers are seeking convenient and new better-for-you snack options,” says Nick Desai, CEO of Snack it Forward LLC.
Fruit 2.0 will be unveiled by Snack it Forward, LLC, under license from Sunkist Growers, Inc. at the Produce Marketing Association (PMA) Fresh Summit held October 17 – 19, 2014 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA. Following PMA, Fruit 2.0 will be rolling out to grocery, convenience and mass merchandise retailers nationwide beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014.
