no 1 for fruit
We are the No1 supplier of cranberry and wild blueberry
ingredients in the UK and we farm over 1500 acres of apple,
cherry, peach, nectarine and apricot orchards.

Since we were founded by Josiah Oliver Sims in 1896, we have
built a series of lasting relationships with growers and processors
around the World to bring a wide variety of fruit to the UK. We
were the first to introduce cranberries in the 1960’s and wild
blueberries in the 1980’s, and continue to offer both core and
innovative fruit products in formats to suit the requirements of
today’s markets.

Throughout our history we have adopted a long term approach
to ensure continuity of supply and to provide our customers with
a reliable source of high quality fruit. We also offer the stability,
experience and expertise to give our suppliers the confidence
that we are the best equipped company to represent them in
the UK market.
the cherry experts
JO Sims is the No1 cherry supplier in the UK.
In 1992 we began to establish our own cherry
orchards in Washington State, where the climate
and growing conditions produce some of the
World’s finest and most flavoursome produce.

Today we farm over 1500 acres of organic and
conventional fruit in Washington, making us one of
the largest cherry growers in the region and possibly
the biggest organic cherry producer in the world.

Either side of the Washington harvests we source
cherries globally to meet demand in the UK. We
have a dedicated procurement team to find and
manage suppliers in the Northern and Southern
hemispheres; and our particular expertise in
cherries means we are able to maintain quality
standards, as we move from one source to the
next, following the sun, and the growing seasons,
around the World.
