Oranges with red pulp are gaining importance

Germany: Current citrus season quantitatively very good'

The supply of goods in today's citrus market is significantly better than last year at this time, as is the quality of the products. Regarding oranges, Spanish products continue to dominate the events with a market share of about 75 percent in blond oranges, while clementines are gradually losing importance. These already are largely replaced by Israeli products.


Fresh oranges of the Clemen Lady brand

Red pulp
Importer Alfred Ringwald of the Fruit Agency René Ringwald GmbH in Lahr mainly sells Spanish citrus brands, including Clemen Lady and Frutimur. The longtime marketer is seeing a clear trend towards red-fleshed oranges. “Under the Ros brand we market leafy clementines and the red-fleshed Cara Cara orange varieties. Furthermore, we also market the red-fleshed Valencia Late and Kirkwood Red Navel. We expect to bring the Valencia Late from Spain to market in about four weeks.”



Although the Spanish oranges are currently still by far the top priority, the importer claims that the citrus season is currently slowly coming to an end. Ringwald: “Then consumers expect other products such as apricots and nectarines. We will start with these in about two weeks, marketing them under the quality brand Anabella.”



Quality brands
The René W. Ringwald GmbH was founded in 1952 and has since established itself as a competent brand importer. In addition to citrus, the fruit agency sells stone fruit, grapes, cherries, melons, onions and vegetables from cultivation areas in southern Europe and overseas. The company's quality brands include Anabella, Goldbeam, Ladyfruit, Pepe and Red Gold.
