More about black grapes

Rich flavour and standout appearance

Black grapes are visually distinctive and offer a richer, sweeter flavour than red or white grapes. They're ideal for premium shelf positions and mixed grape promotions.

Sourcing and season alignment

We source black grapes primarily from Peru and Brazil, along with Spain and South Africa during transition periods. Our supply chain is designed to deliver consistent volumes through careful handovers.

Preferred varieties

Varieties like Sweet Sapphire and Midnight Beauty are appreciated for their long shelf life, unique shape, and intense taste. Hillfresh aligns with growers that meet strict export standards and flavour consistency.

Packaging and delivery

Black grapes require careful handling to protect their skin and maintain visual quality. Hillfresh supports multiple packaging formats and works with logistics partners to optimise freshness and flexibility.
