Information for New Growers
BerryWorld is one of the UK's leading suppliers of both conventional & organic fresh soft fruit. This is in no small way due to its dedicated & long term grower supply base who consistently seek to exceed UK customer expectations in regard to fruit quality & food safety. BerryWorld sources strawberries, raspberries, blueberries & blackberries for 12 months of the year, but importantly seek to do this by dealing with a limited grower base. In a sense, growth of BerryWorld very much reflects the success of its growers.
BerryWorld supplies Tesco, Waitrose, The Co Op, Ocado, Asda, M&S, and other Food Services companies. We work closely with our customers and actively encourage our growers to build a relationship with customers they supply. Importantly, the better both parties understand the requirements of each other and future objectives, the more successful the outcome. To this end, much analysis of customer data takes place to clearly identify customer demand. BerryWorld also works closely with our growers to ensure that plans are put in place that result in targeted production and assured quality. BerryWorld has a dedicated team of Technical and Marketing personnel who are there to support and assist growers. Each grower has a dedicated Technical and Marketing person whom they will deal with. Also, importantly BerryWorld has one of the most prompt payment schemes in the industry.
