Fruit importer LGS Specialty Sales, New Rochelle, N.Y., is promoting growing regions around the globe with the Dish to Discovery program.

From Sept. 30-Nov. 6, the company’s Darling Citrus brand will be featured each week in a consumer contest.

Darling Citrus e-mail subscribers will be introduced to different growing regions, highlighting dishes each week from the region, according to a news release. Winners will receive a 12-month travel/exploration themed subscription box with recipes, spices and food from various cultures.

“We are so proud of the long-standing relationships we’ve built with our growers in Argentina, Chile, Mexico, Morocco, Peru and Spain,” Luke Sears, president and founder of LGS Specialty Sales, said in the release. “Dish to Discovery is a great way for us to educate our customers and consumers about where their citrus is grown. We are excited to share more about the regions and cultures we work so closely with.”

Through the fall promotion, clementines will be sourced from Chile, transitioning to Spain and Morocco when the Northern Hemisphere season starts. Mexico and Chile will be shipping Darling Lemons, according to the news release.

The company also imports grapes and avocados.
