Brooks Tropicals, Cal Giant, & DNE World Fruit

Jul. 22, 2010

Brooks Tropicals offers a healthy alternative with their SlimCado Avocados. They have half the fat and a third fewer calories than other avocado varieties and are available now through January. The SlimCado remains green throughout ripening and has a shelf life of roughly one week.

Tennis fans were treated to California Giant Berries as part of HSBC's Wimbeldon 2010 promotion at Rockefeller Center. 75,000 strawberries were distributed in downtown Manhattan during the week-long activities, as fans were encouraged to eat healthy while enjoying celebrity exhibition matches on Manhattan's only grass court.

DNE World Fruit's South African Citrus is proving that soccer isn't the only crowd pleaser this summer. Easy to peel Navel Oranges, sweet and delicious Clementines, tangy Minneola Tangelos and South Africa's popular Midnight Seedless Oranges are all this month. Retailers should be on the lookout for South African-themed POS material.
