Our annual Parliament function took place last night which is an opportunity to thank those in Wellington for the support they provide our industry. We had around 300 people attend including Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Minister of Agriculture and Minister for Trade Todd McClay, Ministers and MPs from across Parliament and officials from a number of government departments, as well as other key stakeholders. Our CEO Jason Te Brake highlighted the bright outlook for our industry and opportunity to drive export value for New Zealand, as well as the important role government plays in enabling industries like ours to do so. Thanks to everyone who joined us 🥝

The fruit has a unique berry sweet taste and is available nationwide in the fresh produce section at major supermarkets and fresh fruit retailers from now until June. Zespri RubyRed™ Kiwifruit are naturally smaller in size but packed full of goodness – it contains a number of antioxidants, including Vitamin C and anthocyanins which are naturally occurring pigments within the fruit giving the fruit its red colour.
