  • Launch Of Northwest Cherries Into The Malaysian Fruit Market

    7.12.2019

    Last week I attended the 'Cheers To Cherries' campaign by Northwest Cherries in Kepong Mall. With an emphasis on healthy eating in partnership with Tesco and Malaysian fitness guru Kevin Zahri, the campaign aims to inspire health-conscious Malaysians to cherry on for a healthier fitness lifestyle. 

    Did you know that cherries are ranked as the most health-protective food thanks to its unrivaled health benefits? Yes, this superfood fruit is a nutritional rock-star for those watching their weight, health or just leading an active lifestyle. One cup, or about 21 cherries, contains less than 100 calories with a low GI ranking. One of the best-kept secrets of cherries is its anti-inflammatory properties, which aid muscle recovery and reduce muscle soreness after a workout.

    Now is the time to buy these highly sought after new season NorthWest Cherries, fresh off the orchards in the North-western states of USA. Over 2,500 growers work tirelessly to bring the world the sweetest, juiciest, plumpest cherries ripened on the trees. The US is currently the second-largest cherry exporter in the world and one of the leading exporters of cherries to Malaysia. 

    According to Mr. Abdul Ghani Wahab, Agriculture Specialist, US Dept of Agriculture who was present to officially launch the new season, Northwest Cherries are grown on fertile soil with a climate that is ideal for great quality cherries. There are 11 varieties and he believes that Northwest Cherries are the most delicious cherries in the world!
