A new site manager for the Val'Fruits Cooperative

The Val'Fruits cooperative, based out of France's Haute Savoie region, decided to start the 2009 apple and pear harvest with a new site manager.

Mr. Lacroix is hoping to help the cooperative grow as it nows distributes conventional and organic apples and pears to 2 of France's larger supermarkets as well as several wholesalers. The cooperative has been known to export a little to Germany, mainly organic fruit, but would like to focus more on the national market, and who knows, maybe put their fruits on additional supermarket's shelves.
