Australia & New Zealand cherry retail program launched nationwide in USA
Pinnacle Fresh USA, itself owned by an Australian company specializing in sourcing outstanding produce, this year has put in place retail programs from the west to east coast of the USA.
Daniel Newport, (Account manager), explains the Tasmanian season so far, “Whilst the season has presented some initial challenges for our team with cold weather persisting in the important time of pollination reducing volumes, followed by some rain events in December this has been countered through some smart investment from our supplier partners. They have made significant advances with technology to help combat such issues with 100% non-permeable rain covers installed to preserve and enhance quality. Our retail partners here in the USA are therefore enjoying the opportunity to supply the very best in which Tasmania has to offer”.
Tad Brusseau (Account Manager) explains NZ’s Cromwell season so far, “Cromwell also experienced similar delays in pollination due to cold weather but the season kicked in with a bang with some exceptional quality coming through the system. Our partners in NZ did experience some recent rain also but it has had little to no effect on quality.”
