The C&I NZ Expo returns to Auckland this month, offering the latest products, trends and services for independent grocers, convenience stores, petrol stations, corner shops, and the foodservice sector.
Here’s a quick sneak peek at one of the many amazing exhibitors you can meet there.
In an increasingly globalised world, New Zealand’s appetite for international flavours continues to grow. Zebra International, a leading importer and distributor of food and beverage products from countries including the USA, UK, and South Africa, is at the forefront of meeting this demand.
With an impressive portfolio spanning several categories, Zebra International has established a strong presence across New Zealand supermarkets. From beverages including LaCroix sparkling water and Freshpak rooibos tea to confectionery lines such as Feastables and Swizzels and sauces including Sweet Baby Ray’s, Zebra International caters to diverse consumer tastes.
The international aisle is also where the company shines, offering a selection of beloved products such as Irn Bru, Calypso lemonades, Baker’s biscuits, and Fruit Roll-Ups.
“We’re seeing a significant surge in demand for international products,” says Sharn Roberts, Marketing Manager at Zebra International. “Kiwi consumers are increasingly adventurous, seeking out new flavours and experiences from around the globe.”
Zebra International’s commitment to innovation is evident in its recent launches of The Good Crisp Company and Probar, both part of the healthy snacking category, which is experiencing remarkable growth.
First showcased at the Auckland Food Show in July, these products garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback. The Good Crisp Company’s range of guilt-free cannister crisps and Probar’s range of protein bars, energy gummies, and meal replacement bars are now being rolled out in stores across the country.
You can meet Zebra International at the C&I NZ Expo – along with more than 60 other exhibitors!
