FreshPlaza.com reports: There has been a keen interest in South Africa’s entry into kiwifruit exports, and the third season of sending South African yellow kiwis to Europe, the Middle East and the Far East is now concluding and they’re looking back at a gratifying season, says Peter Turner of Variety Innovation, license holder of Soreli yellow kiwis in South Africa.
“There’s been quite a bit of excitement about South African kiwis from various quarters who are used to dealing with South African fruit,” Peter Turner says, “But at the moment we can only tantalise them with very small volumes. South African growers are anxious to see what the demand is for their kiwis, what the returns are and what the condition on arrival is.”
