Aozora International Ltd was established in September 2003 by John Bostock and Anthony Bruford to market premium, New Zealand grown produce throughout Asia.
Our head office, Aozora New Zealand, is based in Auckland, and handles the procurement, packing and sale of a wide variety of New Zealand and South American fresh produce and FMCG products.
Our vertically integrated structure means you buy direct from the grower.
In 2009 we opened our first foreign office in Kobe, Japan, and followed this in 2011 with a second office in Busan, South Korea. In 2020 we opened our office in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. We have reaffirmed our ties with Chile and Peru with investments in suppliers and orchards there.
The Aozora Group currently handles over 30,000 metric tonnes of Southern Hemisphere fresh produce annually.
