IG International, one of India’s leading fresh fruit importers, has settled into an agreement with BEN DOR FRUITS & NURSERIES which grants them the license to cultivate plantations of stone fruit and pome fruits.

Speaking on the grant of the license, Tarun Arora, Director of Finance and Operations of IG International, said, “This is big for Indian agriculture. This is one of the biggest deals in plant genetics and nurseries. It’s a big win for the Indian apple industry. Ben-Dor is the best partner and has the most superior plant genetics in the world. The values and strategy completely align with our vision. We look forward to working closely together on this.”

“We look for the most professional and reliable partners and are thankful to have reached an agreement with IG, to develop and introduce varieties where quality and flavour is appreciated. India is strategically important for us for the coming decades for the development of high-quality plantations. We hope to be a significant positive impact on the local farming sector,” added Edo Ben Dor, Founder, BEN DOR FRUITS & NURSERIES.
