People visiting Dunnes Stores in Newbridge next week can get their pineapple stripped, chopped and delivered in bite-sized pieces, in a compostable tub - all in just 20 seconds.
The state-of the-art pineapple cutting machine – understood to be the first of its kind in Ireland – is being supplied to Dunnes Stores by Irish fruit importers Fyffes and will be in Newbridge from Thursday, June 27, to Saturday, June 29.
One of a number of demonstrations planned by Dunnes this Summer, it will give Newbridge shoppers what Fyffes marketing manager, Emma Hunt-Duffy says will be "the chance to see how quickly a swish of blades can serve up pineapple-to-go and at no added cost beyond the recommended retail price of the pineapple itself".
