So how does selling Chinese tinned apple sauce fit into that?
I used to like eating the stuff, and am appalled that NZ grown apple products have been replaced by Chinese ones
It’s a shame that we can no longer use or recommend such an iconic NZ brand as Fresh Up…..

NZ organic products are what we are looking for. Price is not crucial. Please create a new product range!

Dear Ian,
Thank you for your feedback.
The reason we have had to change the product is because the New Zealand manufacturer decommissioned their production line.
You can be assured however that the product from China meets our rigorous quality standards.
I appreciate that there has been negative publicity about various products from China which unfortunately is caused by a small minority of disreputable operators.
That should not however detract from the fact that China produces a vast amount of high quality produce which is used by the worlds leading consumer goods companies.
Without Chinese produce there would be insufficient world supply of many of these products, and that includes apple based products.
You will be pleased to know however that our Fresh Up fruit juice range is still made from 100% New Zealand grown apples as it has been for the last 48 years. So long as reasonably possible we will keep it that way.
Kind regards,
CEO Frucor - New Zealand
