Kiwifruit marketer Zespri International got the go-ahead from New Zealand kiwifruit growers to increase their plantings of its fruit overseas. The new arrangements will see up to 420 additional hectares of Zespri SunGold Kiwifruit per year over six years planted in Italy, France, Japan, South Korea and Greece starting next year. Kiwifruit plantings are already licensed by Zespri in several countries because it allows NZ kiwifruit to be available year round and fill a gap when NZ fruit is not available.
