Problems This Category Solves

  • Sweetness that suits one market is rejected in another and the factory only runs one syrup
  • Fruit that travels too far before canning arrives soft and discolours in the tin
  • Halves, slices and dices usually mean three separate suppliers
  • Apricot has a six-week harvest window that most buyers discover too late
  • Glass jar formats for premium retail are hard to get alongside standard tins

Who Buys It

  • Importers supplying supermarkets with canned fruit under a house brand
  • Dessert, bakery and dairy manufacturers using fruit as an ingredient

  • Retail buyers looking for fruit in juice rather than heavy syrup

  • Halves, slices and dices cut styles on peach, pear and apricot
  • Named varieties on peach, pear, apricot and grape rather than unspecified fruit
  • Tins to 3000G and jars to 1700ML for catering and premium retail

Canned Fruits Questions Buyers Ask

Which brix levels can you pack?

Three bands are available: 11 to 14 percent, 14 to 17 percent and 18 to 22 percent. The choice usually follows what the destination market expects rather than a single house standard.

Can fruit be packed in juice instead of syrup?

Yes. Syrup, water and juice are all available packing mediums on the fruit lines.

When is each fruit harvested?

Yellow peach runs June to September, pear June to November and apricot only May to June. Apricot has the narrowest window, so it needs to be booked earliest.

Which peach varieties do you use?

Yellow peach is packed from the 83, 19 and 5 varieties as well as Golden Crown and Sweet Gold. Pear uses Su pear and Crown pear, and apricot uses Golden Sun and Chuanzhihong.

Do you supply fruit in glass jars for retail?

Yes. Oval jars at 330ML and 550ML and round jars at 580ML, 720ML and 1700ML are available alongside the tin formats.

How far is the fruit transported before canning?

The cannery is 70 km from the orchard belt that supplies its yellow peach, which keeps the time between picking and canning short.
