The Washington Apple Commission brought the freshness of apples straight from the orchards of Washington State to Jamshedpur on Wednesday. As part of a national campaign called the Apple Wagon Tour, Washington Apple Commission created a fun and exciting event for consumers in the city at Prabhat Park , New Housing Colony , Adityapur.
The Apple Wagon Tour is a three-month long roadshow that is going on through 55 cities across India. Through this roadshow, consumers will be able to experience the different varieties of Washington apples.
Commenting on the tour, Keith Sunderlal, India representative, Washington Apple Commission said, “We are very happy with the response that we have received from consumers in Jamshedpur for the Apple Wagon Tour. Through this initiative we want more and more people to experience the goodness of Washington apples. All of us know about the health benefits of apples and we want to bring them to the consumers at their doorstep through the roadshow. We are excited about the roadshow and are looking forward to the consumer response from the next city in Jamshedpur.”
Naini Setalvad, Nutritionist, “Apples and healthy lifestyle are synonymous to each other; being a nutritionist myself I always make sure the intake of apples by my patients in their everyday diet is high. I’m glad that the Washington Apple Commission has taken up this initiative and actually helped propagate the idea of eating at least one Apple a day. A mobile van like the Apple Wagon is sure a very innovative and exciting way to keep the consumer educated. “.
