After a year of huge challenge and success, the innovative snack sized apple company Rockit Global took out both the Best Established Business award and the overall award for Exporter of the Year at the Hawke’s Bay Export Awards last night.
Across Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam, more and more retail customers are also taking the leap with Rockit, with sales rocketing up the charts across the region. The snack size of Rockit resonates with consumers throughout the Middle East, too, which has seen growth there exceed all expectations – a 32 percent increase in sales year on year (2020 v 2021).
The latest win adds to Rockit’s collection of gongs this year, as the company won an Axis Award, gold at the Best Awards and Best Large Business at the China Business Awards earlier in 2022.
“Right through our global supply chain – from our growers to our orchard, packhouse, office and global teams – this win is something to be enormously proud of. We could not be more thrilled to have demonstrated our energy and enthusiasm for what we do to the judging panel, and to have won these honours”, says O’Donnell.
