Cobell International
Cobell International was launched in 1999 to meet the growing demand for high quality fruit ingredients. In a relatively short time, they've become one of Europe's leading processed fruit suppliers, providing clients with their chosen fruit ingredients in any packaging or quantity. An experienced multi-lingual team sources ingredients from all over the world, with a particular focus on accreditations including BRC, the Soil Association, Taste of the West, Fair Trade and Rain Forest Alliance. To support their expanding business, Cobell now have sales, storage and packaging facilities in Devon and Hertfordshire, plus a recently opened aseptic bag-in-box packaging facility.

David Pearce, Managing Director
“Having the right commercial insurance is a necessity, not a luxury and our clients demand it. Many importers or exporters wrongly believe that the cargo carrier's contractual conditions will compensate them for any loss or damage. They don't. As an importer/exporter susceptible to the vagaries of weather, the availability of oil or even the risks posed by the recent increase in piracy, this protection is invaluable.”
