Dear All,

Happy New Year!

The quality of South African fruit is considered by many the best in the world!

 Ironically, the local market quality is great but the rest of the world (including us in the UK) gets the best. The key fruits we like to buy from South Africa (none air-freighted of course and all easy to eat in the office) are:

• Peaches and nectarines: best availability from January to March
• Plums: January to April
• Table grapes: December to February (although this season was off to a slow-start)

So the season has just got going – but I look forward to finding more availability and better quality as the season progresses. So look out for some welcome variety in the office fruit baskets and boxes!

Have a fruitful week!
