OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — Wonderful Citrus showcased its Seedless Lemons and Organic Halos at the Associated Wholesale Grocers’ seventh annual Innovation Showcase, March 25-26.

Organic Halo mandarins were introduced in the 2023-24 season and have experienced good demand, said Larry Goens, vice president of sales for Wonderful Citrus.

Organic Halos have a slightly shorter season than conventional Halos but generally follow their season, Goens said.

Wonderful Citrus also sampled its Seedess Lemon at the AWG show, Goens said. Once consumers discover Seedless Lemons, many come back as repeat purchasers, he said.

Wonderful also promoted the marketer’s No Shells pistachios at the event, including its new Jalapeño Lime flavor.
