PORT WASHINGTON, NY - Wave hello to summer citrus, as William H. Kopke Jr. welcomes its lineup of zesty offerings from South Africa, Chile, Peru, Uruguay, Colombia, and Argentina.
“We are delighted that summer citrus has arrived and once again looks and tastes beautiful,” shared William Kopke, Managing Director. “With the growth of our repack facility by 10,000 additional square feet, for a total of 35,000 square feet, we have the capacity to pack any type of citrus packaging. In addition to our large repack facility, we have full control of the logistics, which allows us to pivot quickly and satisfy any customer need.”
The supplier’s premium citrus fruit portfolio includes Mandarins, Navel oranges, Minneolas, Cara Caras, grapefruit, and lemons, which are available under its SWEETUMS® brand. The company also has lime under its Mr. Squeeze™ brand.
William H. Kopke Jr.’s SWEETUMS brand received a refresh across its citrus line in 2022, according to a release. It features smiling, personified faces of citrus on its packaging, standing out to shoppers perusing the produce department.
“We have been selling under the SWEETUMS brand for many years and have received a great deal of positive feedback from the end consumer,” shared Kopke. “After a year with the rebrand, we have established SWEETUMS as the premium fruit option, earning consumers' trust through a consistent experience across all categories.”
The refreshed SWEETUMS citrus is available this summer in grocery retailers across North America.
