Market spreads bets to offset apple juice jitters

摘要

Volatile apple concentrate prices are forcing diversification and consolidation, despite the current buoyancy in the market, according to juice base processor David Berryman. Md Rachel Collins said broadening its activities had enabled the company to bounce back after a tough few years during which the bottom fell out of the apple juice concentrate market. This had been a major revenue source for the firm, which saw its sales more than halved by the knock-on hit from the sector.
