I’m joined this morning by Mr Mansouri, CEO of Fresh Fruits. Mr Mansouri: Frutia—Fresh Fruits own brand label. What was the idea here?
M: Well, at Fresh Fruits we’ve always been in the business in knowing our suppliers as intimately as possible, so it was only natural that as we expanded our business that we would eventually develop our own premium brand which reflected our values: of delivering only the highest quality produce, and at the best possible prices.

So how is knowing your suppliers an advantage to your brand?
M: It’s simply a matter of choosing the pick of the crop, if you like: we specify exactly what we’re looking for, and decide out of the premium products we source, the very best of type to be packed under the Frutia brand. With suppliers’ brands, there is always the chance that there is not sufficient consistency within a shipment for the level of quality we look for.
