International Sales Director Fabien Dumont said FruitMasters will use the platform to highlight developments in logistics and variety innovation. The cooperative recently relocated its logistics operations to a newly built facility in Geldermalsen. The Smart Fruit Hub offers sorting, packaging, and logistics services, available for both FruitMasters' own products and for third parties. According to Dumont, its central location provides direct access to the European market.
