DRIED FRUITS – Cherries, Blueberries, Cranberries, Strawberries

Ingredient, repack or bulk distribution, whatever the customer requirement, Cherry Central is the source for dried cherries, wild and cultivated blueberries, cranberries and strawberries, along with other fruits. Third party-certified production and distribution facilities in Shelby, Michigan and Payson, Utah provide cost efficient advantages for our customers; both are Kosher certified plants.

Optimum moisture consistency, balanced with sweetness and real fruit flavor, is the result of advanced drying techniques. Visual appeal, piece identity, shelf stability, dietary fiber, complementary flavor and the absence of coloring, are just a few of the many advantages of Cherry Central’s dried fruit. In addition, preservatives and sulfites are never used, and most of the dried fruits are GMO free. A Certificate of Analysis is available for each shipment.

Standard pack sizes are 10 and 25-pound poly-lined cartons. Contact us regarding custom sizes.

Cherry Central offers technical services to customize our dried fruit to your specifications. Certain items may be presented in a sliced or diced form. Whether you are a distributor or a buyer of ingredients, you will be guaranteed a consistent quality product.
