Thanks to its unique microclimate and favorable soil conditions, Australia's hot and dry summers have helped to promote the growth of summer fruits that are sweeter, juicier, and have a special aroma. At the same time, its favorable location near Asia helps to reduce costs and time for transporting goods, providing better access to markets in the region; and contributing to ensuring the highest quality preservation process, keeping the delicious flavor from the farm straight to the consumer.
The Australian Summer Fruits industry, which includes stone fruits (soft fleshy fruits with hard pits), is committed to providing premium fruit, held to the strictest quality standards while using innovative and environmentally friendly growing methods. This means ensuring the product is kept at 0°C - 2°C throughout the entire process from harvest and gradually increasing the storage temperature to the optimum temperature for natural ripening of the fruit, 8°C - 25°C until it is delivered to consumers in Vietnam, to maintain freshness, ripeness and the best quality.
In addition to eating them fresh, you can create dishes from Australian peaches and nectarines.
Australian Summer Fruits currently available in the Vietnamese market include two main types of fruit: Australian peaches and nectarines. Australian peaches are recognized by their velvety, downy skin, which is usually yellow and red, or red and white. Peach flesh also ranges in color from white to deep orange, depending on the cultivar, but is generally grouped into white or yellow varieties. Ripe peaches have a naturally sweet aroma that can be recognized by gently pressing on the flesh. Both Australian peaches and nectarines can be classified into two main varieties: freestone (flesh separate from the seed) or attachedstone (flesh attached to the seed). Additionally, nectarines, also known as 'nectarines of the gods', have smooth yellow, orange or red skin and juicy white or yellow flesh. Yellow nectarines can be both sweet and sour, while white nectarines are mildly sweet when the flesh is firm and crisp. Nectarines have a natural aroma and are very sweet when ripe. In general, Australian Summer Fruits, as they ripen, will gradually become softer and juicier, and their characteristic sweet aroma will become more evident over time.
Guests enjoy the aroma and sweet taste of Australian peaches and nectarines.
For health-conscious consumers, Australian summer fruits are the perfect match. They are a natural superfood, low on the glycemic index (GI) and suitable as a low-calorie snack. The low GI helps restore energy and satisfy cravings in a healthy way, keeping you fuller for longer. Australian summer fruits not only taste great, but also have potential health benefits, including improved digestive health, a healthy heart, a strong immune system and improved allergy symptoms due to adequate potassium, high levels of natural antioxidants and vitamins (A, C & E), essential minerals and fiber. In addition, they support the body to better absorb iron, support healthy weight loss and enhance skin health for regular Australian Summer Fruit users.
