The grower-shipper is finishing the California grape season strong and transitioning to the Peruvian and Chilean import season, beginning harvest this month.
The California growing season this year was tumultuous due to the extremely hot weather creating problematic growing conditions and higher input costs, resulting in a strain on retail prices. In all, production from California was very similar in volume to last year, though final totals won’t be available until January. Overall, from positive consumer feedback, the grower-shipper saw success with its propriety Pristine® and Holiday® seedless grape varieties this season.
“We take pride in being able to provide premium fruit 52 weeks a year,” says Jack Campbell, president. “Our team is continually developing and expanding our grape offerings so be on the lookout for our new high-flavor varieties in 2023!”
As the company looks towards future growth, it announced an increase in its southern hemisphere volume by 20 percent for 2023. Four Star Fruit offers conventional and organic grapes in a variety of pack styles, including sustainable options, catering to current customer and consumer preferences.
