If you are looking to purchase larger quantities of dried fruit and want to establish a relationship with a provider, here are &#;5 Questions&#; that we think you should ask - us or any other purveyor of ingredient-quality dried fruits:

In today&#;s &#;label conscious&#; environment, if you use ingredients with added sugars or sweeteners, you are required to list those on your label - and on your ingredient statements. Some fruits are sweetened to make them more palpable (i.e. cranberries) and you can find everything from High Fructose Corn Syrup to Pear Juice to Stevia - as a way to add sweetness. Other fruits, like those at Sunrise Fresh, are unsweetened &#; as they are naturally sweet and require no extra added anything - &#;Just the Fruit&#; And Nothing Else&#;
Not all producers can accommodate order quantities for smaller businesses or foodservice applications. Many only sell by the truckload or &#;full pallets&#; - which may or may not work for you. If you are cooking for 1 restaurant or hotel, for instance, you won&#;t be needing a truckload - but depending upon the usage, you may need only 20 or 30 pounds. At Sunrise Fresh, we can supply you with everything from Snack Packs (individual 1 oz. packages), multi-serve re-sealable bags up to 2 lbs., boxed products (with resealable bags inside) from 4 lbs. To 20 Lbs., half-pallets, full pallets - and only if you need them &#; a truckload!
An easy question to ask, but not always an easy one for suppliers to answer! Fruits are grown all over the globe - under different conditions and farming practices, yielding varying qualities of fruit. Even the drying and preservation methods can vary - including sulfite and preserving agents, none of which we use at Sunrise Fresh. We&#;ve made a commitment that our brand will only contain fruit grown and processed in the U.S.A. The majority of our fruit comes from California&#;s Central Valley - but we also purchase raw fruits from growers in the Pacific Northwest, including Washington State and Oregon - all of which meet stringent standards.

Of course, we all know that, unless you buy fruits from the Southern Hemisphere, each variety only has a relatively short growing and harvest time. In fact, that&#;s why the practice of &#;drying&#; came about in the first place. Still, you will find providers that only make their fruits available during the few months following harvest, because they don&#;t purchase in quantities that would span the seasons. Now, it is important to remember that producers, all of us, are working at the whims of Mother Nature. We are not running a factory making widgets &#; and sometimes, there will be interruptions and shortages - due to rain activity or sustained drought, However, Sunrise Fresh goes to great lengths to ensure that our customers have a consistent supply of their chosen fruits, 24/7/365.
