Giumarra Southern Hemisphere is currently offering red grapefruit from the Yaqui Valley, which is grown and packed in Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. Production this year is excellent with sizing and availability for all of Giumarra’s retail and foodservice customers. Harvest continues until June, making it a great complement to the Texas citrus season. Grapefruit is a great source of vitamins A and C, as well as a good source of dietary fiber. Fernando Soberanes, Salesman for Giumarra Southern Hemisphere, tells us, “The tangy flavor and health benefits of red grapefruit make it ideal for supporting your consumers' healthy eating initiatives by highlighting this delicious fruit at store level.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Houweling’s Tomatoes’ Rainbow Grape Trio is going strong again this year after its initial launch in Spring of 2013. Grown year round in California and British Columbia, these yellow, orange and red grape tomato varieties each deliver a unique high flavor taste profile, while offering the firmness and crunch that make them snacking delights. David Bell, Chief Marketing Officer, tells AndNowUKnow, “We have worked over the last 18 months to get the best tasting tomatoes with rich contrasting colors to enhance the eating experience. This year we are hitting our stride on the new item with great reception on this popular offering.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
