Zespri and T&G Global (formerly Turners and Growers) have been delivering another donation of nine tonnes of Zespri Green Kiwifruit to Fijians affected by Cyclone Winston. This time the team from T&G Global in Fiji will deliver the Zespri Kiwifruit through cyclone-affected schools around the Suva region, working with Fiji's Ministry for Education to target the donation to the most affected areas. The donation is again the result of collaboration with Zespri of three companies: T&G Global, Weatherall's Transport and Maersk, all of whom have helped deliver this fruit to the schools in Fiji free of charge. T&G Global Fiji managing director Bobby Sharma says many Kiwis think things are back to normal in Fiji given the timeframe since the cyclone took place, but he has seen first-hand how badly people are suffering 10 months on. T&G is also about to welcome 20 RSE workers from cyclone-affected villages to work on our orchards in Hawke's Bay.
