Makro reveals fruit and veg success

Monday, 13 October 2008
 
Fruit and vegetables are proving to be very popular at the cash and carry Makro, the company has said recently.

The company revealed that it is always looking to boost its range, which can be purchased by independent retailers and restaurants.

Martin Griffin, told Fresh Info that a good deal of stock is sourced from farms in Boston and in Lincolnshire.

He commented: "Makro had a very limited fruit and vegetable selection three years ago, but we always listen to what our customers are looking for and fresh fruit and vegetables have really become a priority for chefs and caterers."

And "quality comes first with fruit and vegetables", Griffin said, even though "price is the key" in the current climate.

In August, Makro said that it would be releasing its own delicatessen range.
