British importer & packer
of premium fruits

Richard Hochfeld Group has been one of Europe’s foremost independent fruit importers since the 1930s. Specialising in grapes, apples and pears, we have been a trusted supplier to Britain’s leading supermarket chains and wholesale traders.

Our purpose-built facilities in the UK and our comprehensive understanding of the fresh produce industry and British consumers enable us to meet the individual requirements of every one of our customers.

We started life as a fruit importer, packer and service provider. However, we have adapted to the evolving global trading environment and diversified and invested in our grower base, to build a dependable and sustainable supply of high-class products for our customers in the UK, eastern Europe and Asia.

Constantly evolving.

We have begun to transfer our expertise and experience in the fresh produce industry into other sectors — we have stakes in companies who make gin and rum, as well as a number of joint ventures and partnerships in industries as varied as insurance and marketing.

All of which has helped us strengthen our core offerings to our customers.
