NEW ROCHELLE, NY - In the produce business, being ahead of schedule is right on time. Citrus fans can rejoice as LGS Specialty Sales is offering retailers South African Star Ruby grapefruit early. A leading importer of citrus for over 30 years, LGS stands out as a reliable supplier, and now thanks to the company’s volume of early summer Star Ruby grapefruit, shipments are available out of New Jersey now through October.

“Our customers continue to partner with LGS Specialty Sales because we work to secure fresh produce, like grapefruit, when the market is in need,” said Luke Sears, President and Founder. “If a retailer is having a hard time sourcing import grapefruit right now, look no further!”

The company continues to source grapefruit from the Mediterranean-like climate of South Africa, a region with optimal conditions for producing high-quality citrus.

While importing fruit from select growers around the world for more than 30 years may be a great claim to fame, it's the quality and excellence that continues to keep this company at the top of its game.

U.S. retailers, it's time to get your import programs started with committed companies like LGS. For more of the latest and greatest summer citrus haul updates, stick with ANUK.
