A refreshing delicacy
The Zespri Green kiwi is refreshing, juicy and full-flavoured. It’s a tasty portable treat that puts a spring in your step and gives you a vitamin boost at the same time.
Health Benefits
The green kiwi is simply bursting with vitamin C, fibre and antioxidants. Compared to other fruit and veg, a Zespri Green contains more fibre than four stalks of celery, almost twice as much vitamin C as two oranges, and almost as much potassium as a banana. And due to its low pH value, the vitamins do not deteriorate during storage.
Can be eaten all year round
You can enjoy Zespri Green kiwis all year round – as an energy boost and vitamin powerpack in cold winter months or as a refreshing snack in the summer. Even better, the green kiwi is naturally fat free, which means you can enjoy its fresh taste to the full with a happy heart.
