APPLES
โAn Apple A Day Keeps
The Doctor Away.โ
It wasnโt so long ago that apples, the most popular fruit in the world, were only available for a few months in the year, and were limited to only a handful of varieties. Today we have an abundance of riches, with over 7,500 different kinds of apple available: the Pink Lady, Pacific Rose, Coxโs Orange Pippin, Fuji, Braeburn, Red and Golden Delicious, Gala, and, the Granny Smith, the most popular of these. Nonetheless, we can source even the more unusual strains, such as the Russet or the Calville Blanc DโHiver, which dates back to the 1500โs. From the very sweetest dessert apple to the tartest cooking apple, we offer a range of scents, textures and tastes that will thrill the palate of the most discerning consumer. AVOCADOS
โAstonishing Range Of Tastes,
Colors And Texturesโ
With over seventy varieties available in Australia alone, we also source avocadoes from Mexico, Chile, Kenya, and the USA, amongst others. The range of tastes, colours and textures is astonishing: the mildness of the Choquette, the smooth butteriness of the Hass, the deliciously creamy Macarthur, the glistening black Mexicola Grande, and the surprising sweetness of the Lulu, are just a few of the culinary delights that await your customers. BANANAS
โSweet, Sensuous And Deliciousโ
we have a huge varieties of Bananas from Cavendish, these days grown mainly in the Philippines, while popular, is only one of the many varieties Fresh Fruits offers. Consider Red bananas, from India the Kerala banana with its unique sweet firmness that sets it apart.

EXOTICS
โFresh And Original Flavorsโ
Looking around a typical supermarket these days, you might be forgiven for thinking that the fruit available today through Fresh Fruits is almost unrecognisable to what was available less than a generation ago. The perfumed rambutan; the delicate hidden delight of the physalis; the oddly enticing African Horned Cucumber, or the wild contrast in smell and flavour of the remarkable Durian. These are just a few of the fruits that today are familiarโand to familiesโnot just the gourmand. Miraclefruit; mangosteen; cherimoya; aguajefruit; cupuaรงu and the pitaya. Not just apples and oranges, but a year-round harvest of nature that abounds with fresh and original flavours, that Fresh Fruits specialise in. GRAPES
โRepresenting Divine Loveโ
Fresh Fruits offers a range of grapes sourced from across the grape-growing world: bright red cardinals with a luscious sweetness; the deep purple of concords; the sweetly seeded Emperor with their mild cherry flavour; muscats and perlettes with their inviting frost on the skin, and crunchy red crimson seedless. KIWI FRUIT
โScent And Flavour That
Are Redolent Of Tropical Fruitโ
Everyone knows the kiwifruit: fuzzy brown skin that hides the bright green luxury of its sweet centre. Varieties include the Hayward, Blake, and Chico. But the kiwi does have alternatives: the golden kiwi, with its smooth bronze skin, is notably different. Its taste and aroma too, differ, with a scent and flavour that are redolent of tropical fruit, and flesh colours that range from bright yellow to verdant greenโsome even with a red centre, such as the EnzaRed. The latest addition to the family is the baby kiwi, or the โkiwiberryโ, a small, beautifully formed miniature kiwi with a luscious interior. Originally Chinese, today Fresh Fruits sources kiwifruits from countries as far afield as Italy, Canada, New Zealand, Chile, Greece and France. MANGOES
โThe Most Popular Fruit
Grown In The Tropicsโ
Mangoes are by far the most popular fruit grown in the tropics. With their distinctive shape, taste, aroma and texture, they are prized for their quality. Fresh Fruits searches out the best varieties for your customers. The most popular of these is the Indian Alfonso and the Sindhri and the Chausa from Pakistan with their beautiful colour and their gentle flavour. Kensington Pride is a popular variety from Australia, as well as the universally known Tommy Atkins and the apple mango from Kenya. Fresh Fruits also imports the creamy yellow Ataulfo from Mexico; the spicy-sweet Francis from Haiti; the Haden; Kent; Keitt; Edward and Kesarโin fact just about any kind of mango imaginable. MELONS
โPrized As A Source Of โPortable Waterโโ
Melons originated in Africa and were prized as a source of โportable waterโ. But not only are melons a cool summer snack, they are packed with vital nutrients too. The firm cantaloupe is full of potassium, the red-fleshed varieties contain lycopene for heart benefits and casabas help maintain your metabolism. Melons also reduce inflammation and provide a rainbow of vitamins. Whether it be the honeydew, Persian, seeded or seedless watermelons, the choice is vast, the taste divine. As a further benefit โ melon seeds may be roasted and enjoyed as a snack similar to sunflower seeds. PAPAYAS
