DID YOU KNOW?
Kiwifruit has a history as rich as its taste is delicious — all thanks to talented visionaries, like New Zealand’s Isabel Fraser, Alexander Allison, and Hayward Wright, among others. After the development of the green kiwifruit in the 1920s, Zespri® began cultivating in the 1990s a new variety of kiwifruit, developed through natural breeding program: the Gold Kiwifruit. But after suffering from serious diseases in the 2010s, a new gold-variety kiwifruit – larger, sweeter and with smoother skin – was born after over 10 years development: the SunGold kiwifruit, delighting consumers all over the world.
Golden Bay Fruit – as one of its dedicated growers – is proud to be contributing to the success of Zespri® kiwifruit in New Zealand.
All our kiwifruit are exported by Zespri®, a recognised category leader, worldwide.
