Over the past eight decades, ANTHONY VINEYARDS has established its reputation by delivering the highest quality products with superior customer service. In fact, you will find third and fourth generation family members in areas of the business that range from field operations to corporate management, all designed to uphold the family traditions of hard work and customer commitment. With facilities in the Coachella and San Joaquin Valleys, table grapes are shipped from May until December, stone fruit from May until November and citrus is shipped from October until May without interruption. ANTHONY VINEYARDS is one of the few operations that is truly vertically integrated throughout the entire California fruit season. This provides great flexibility and direct control to support strong and progressive relationships with customers that value a true partner and leadership from their supply base.
CAPESPAN is a world class leader in the marketing of fresh fruit internationally. This success can be traced back to the pioneering spirit of South African growers who as early as 1887 saw exports to Europe as part of their future. Today CAPESPAN is an established force in the supply of fresh produce to retailers around the world. To support this position, it has created an integrated global infrastructure that matches the best of what its growers have to offer with what its customers demand. In North America, FISHER CAPESPAN, (a Capespan owned company), is a leader in the importation of deciduous and citrus fruit to service customers on the continent directly. With offices in the U.S.A and Canada, the company is able to service these two very important global markets in real time. Product flows into the ports of Philadelphia, PA, Long Beach, CA and Montreal, Canada. With the counter seasonal nature of the products it specializes in, fruit arrives from Chile, South Africa, Argentina, Brazil, China, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru and Uruguay throughout the year to complement domestic availability. Quality and commitment are important cornerstones to any customer partnership. However, FISHER CAPESPAN does not stop there. The ownership of each sale begins in the field and extends to the consumer s table, through better, fresher and innovative products and ideas.

Global Supply All 12 Months It should not matter if it is the 4th of July or the 4th of January, your customer is now demanding the same great quality every week of the year. By combining the best of what our carefully selected Northern and Southern Hemisphere fruit producers have to offer, Alliance International now has your answer. Logistics and Distribution Internationally, Nationally or Regionally The fresh produce industry becomes more global every day. Given the ownership of leading global produce companies in Alliance International, we can assure you of fresh, safe, traceable product that has not broken the cold chain. With the challenges of just in time delivery and rising transportation costs, we have a national network of warehouses and transportation providers and the experience to meet the challenges our customers present. Packaging Customer Specific Today fresh produce packaging requires much more thought than in the past. While the consumer is becoming more demanding, store level costs such as labor and insurance are escalating. In addition, warehouses want safe, traceable, clearly identifiable and intelligent palletization. In many instances, these issues can be solved with innovative packaging. Whether it is through high graphic display cartons, creative use of clamshells/bags or space efficient master cartons, Alliance will work with your team to address these challenges and ultimately sell more fruit at a higher profit. Category Focus vs. Category Management As the relationship between supplier and customer grows, responsibilities change. Alliance International was specifically created with this in mind. Our staff is uniquely focused on every aspect of the relationship and constantly re-evaluates ways to deliver product fresher and more efficiently, as well as ways to help you sell more. While hard data is always useful, fresh produce has a unique and dynamic nature that requires us all to look beyond the data and think proactively and sometimes unconventionally. That is why we characterize it as a Focus rather than as Category Management.
