Albert Heijn Adds ‘Sprank’ Apple To Its Fruit Assortment

Dutch retailer Albert Heijn has announced that it has rolled out a new apple variant under the brand, Sprank.

Over the past two years, the retailer collaborated with apple supplier Vogelaar Vredehof and fifteen of its regular apple growers in Betuwe, Zeeland, Noord-Brabant, Limburg, Utrecht and Flevoland to develop the new apple.

In autumn of this year, the growers harvested the first batch of these apples, which yielded around 400,000 kilograms of the fruit.
