German fruit importer-distributor Pilz Schindler is hoping to break onto the US market with its Don Limón lime brand during the course of 2009, following the label’s acceptance across the European continent.
To facilitate the launch, the company plans to open its first US office in New York, according to Andreas Schindler who heads up the Pilz Schindler group.
“Our US-based office will handle supplies from the Mexican region of Veracruz to both the East and West coasts,” Mr Schindler told Fruitnet.com.
“We’re already in talks with buyers in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, New Jersey and Philadelphia who have expressed an interest in our Don Limón-branded limes.”
Pilz Schindler recently established a specialised distribution subsidiary in Germany under the Don Limón name to exclusively handle its expanding conventional and organic lime business.
