Granny smith apples and d’anjou pears offer retailers some green produce to add to holiday-themed promotions and displays, says Stemilt Growers.
Organic pears offer a higher retail transaction for winter varieties such as bosc, red and green d’anjou, says Brianna Shales, marketing director for Stemilt Growers.
With the 2024 pear crop projected to be the smallest in decades due to winter freeze, Stemilt encourages retailers to focus on quality over quantity.
The Wenatchee, Wash.-based company is reporting major growth in branded organic apple sales dollars and more promotion opportunities ahead.
“For the eighth annual World Pear Day celebration, USA Pears will once again be partnering with the online platform, Kittch, to showcase six popular chefs preparing a variety of global dishes,” said Jeff Correa of PBNW.
