"Since then the sales of these products have double. It is the appearance in particular that attracts people. The pineberry is white with red seeds and very different from an ordinary strawberry. The taste is also surprising. It does taste a little like strawberry, but more fresh-sweet. The products are marketed under the brand Beekers Berries."
"The pineberry that we grow is a registered variety protected by growers rights. In the breeding programme various improved selections were found. In a few years they will also be marketed." Wim can see the sales of the pineberry increase. "There is already much more demand than last year. This is because the pineberry is known by an increasingly wide audience. The most important buyers are the better fruit shops and restaurants. Compared to an 'ordinary' strawberry the prices are different, relatively secure. The season will run for a while. They are available up until Christmas!"
