Apple
Jul 22, 2024
The apple is the most familiar fruit to many, but did you know that it has been cultivated for thousands of years?
It was the ancient Greeks and Romans who imported them from Central Asia along the Silk Road.
As colonisation progressed, apples spread to the Americas and Africa.
Today there are some 7,000 different varieties. They vary in colour, sweetness and acidity, shape and size.
We strive to obtain high-quality apples. For example, under our own ‘Les Rives’ brand, we offer the following French varieties: Royal Gala, Golden, Granny Smith, Red Chief, Chanteclerc.
We are also proud to distribute the ‘Marlene apple’ in several Italian varieties: Royal Gala, Golden, Granny Smith, Braeburn, Fuji, etc.
