Abstract
New Zealand kiwifruit is being marketed as the world’s finest, so the quality and presentation of the fruit is important.
Most of the export crop is packed during the picking season so may be held in the export packaging for months before it reaches the market.
To assist in the design of effective packaging for kiwifruit, the handling and transportation of the packed fruit has been closely studied and compared with European countries where the growing areas are much closer to the markets.
