I met with Paul Leron.  As Hr> Brooks and J&J Distributing have been combined and named New Harvest Foods. They were both acquired by The Dragon Fly Group.  Paul indicated that they were working on the merger. 

We discussed the cherry season and the troubles that the California crop posed. They began loading N/W Cherries ASAP and are shipping them now. They did experience some later loading as the volume started. They will promote them weekly as they feel it will be number- 1 on their customers list.

I presented the Stone fruit program and also discussed the need to get retail customers excited about them again.
