Great Lakes International Trading To Feature ‘Yummy Fruit Bus’ At PMA

Traverse City, Michigan – Great Lakes International Trading has offered a solution to the timeless question of what can be given to a child for a sustainable lunchtime snack and maintain healthy benefits.

Turkish Apricots are being offered by Great Lakes International Trading in a 1.4 oz. snack tray that can easily be placed in a lunchbox as a healthy treat for children. The 9 snack trays arrive in packaging modeled after a school bus to capture the imagination of a school age child. The product has no added sugar and is naturally fat free. The packs are easy opening and arrive with peak season flavor. The Yummy Fruit Bus™ is directed toward a demographic that rarely has been approached for the consumption of Apricots. Too often parents are limited with lunch snack ideas that require no refrigeration while maintaining shelf life. Apricots are an excellent source of Dietary Fiber and have a high level of Vitamin A and Potassium. 0% calories from fat are another reason to introduce the fruit to our children in the ever growing fight against childhood obesity. The unique packaging and terrific taste of sun-dried Apricots will quickly become a household favorite, especially during the busy school year. We found that the tedious job of staring into the pantry trying to find a snack just got a little easier. More importantly, it’s a smart and healthy arrival with a burst of goodness in each bite.

Great Lakes has a second product launch immediately following the Awesome Apricot Yummy Fruit Bus™. They will introduce the Chummy Cherry Yummy Fruit Bus™ to provide a second healthy lunchbox favorite. Dried Turkish Cherries will arrive in a 1.0 tray in the same formatted school bus. The Yummy Fruit Bus will be on display at the PMA in October in booth 628 and 634.
