SET FAIR FOR A GOOD BRITISH CROPS

Strawberries

This month offers our customers the opportunity to have plenty of choice. Strawberries from Spain, Holland and home grown UK fruit are all available in good quantities of excellent quality fruit.

Raspberries

The second flush of double cropping Spanish varieties are now coming forward, so we can similarly expect good volumes until the end of the month. There has also been the welcome arrival of the first early English Tumaleen grown under glass, and early indications are that the main crop season is not far away.

Blackberries

With the Mexican season coming to a close very shortly after a long run of very high quality fruit the stage is set for Europe to take on the challenge to meet the increasing popularity of the crop.

Sourcing in the month ahead will be a balance of Spanish and Dutch fruit, where growers have shown that they can provide the same prominence to maintain the sales momentum as the summer gets underway.
