The following is a statement by Chris White, managing director of Market Intelligence Limited:
I am pleased to inform you that the publishers of Eurofruit Magazine have acquired Lockwood Press Limited, the company which publishes the Fresh Produce Journal (FPJ), the weekly magazine for the UK fresh produce market.
The FPJ has been supplying news and information for fresh produce buyers in Britain since 1895, making it the world's oldest trade magazine for the fresh fruit and vegetable business. The magazine has many readers in the UK and in supplying countries all over the world. In recent years the FPJ has become co-organiser of the Re:fresh Conference and Annual Awards Dinner in London every May.
Eurofruit Magazine is Europe's leading fresh produce business magazine. It is published by Market Intelligence Limited, which also publishes Asiafruit Magazine and Americafruit Magazine, and organises business conferences all over the world, including FRESH, Asiafruit Congress, Eurofruit Congress Middle East and Eurofruit Congress Southern Hemisphere. It is also a joint venture partner in ASIA FRUIT LOGISTICA, Asia's leading fresh produce trade fair.
Market Intelligence's acquisition of Lockwood Press Limited is aimed at enhancing services for readers in the UK in particular as well as for companies and organisations all over the world who are keen to access the UK market. The UK is a leading European fresh fruit and vegetable market worth more than £7bn (€8.1bn) in annual sales. Its highly developed supply chain structures are considered to be at the vanguard of developments in the fresh fruit and vegetable business. UK growers are enjoying a strong resurgence in demand for their quality produce, and interest in the UK market among suppliers all over the world remains very strong.
Market Intelligence Limited looks forward to the continued growth of the Fresh Produce Journal and its related products and services.
Your sincerely,
Chris White – Managing Director
Market Intelligence Limited
