Welcome to Jack Hughes (seen above with his gorgeous granddaughter) who is taking over from Chris Hale as Summerfruit NZ's research and development manager.
Jack's involvement with summerfruit goes way back having grown up on a pip and summerfruit orchard and then growing both for a time. He has also been involved in research, management and consulting with summerfruit which has helped broaden his industry view.
Jack says he is looking forward to contributing to the management of Summerfruit NZ’s R&D programme as we head into a new chapter for the industry.
