Choice Fruit

There's something special about artisan foods, especially when they're made with care in a place as beautiful as Wairarapa. Choice Fruit understands this perfectly, which is why their high-quality, locally made products have been helping schools, sports teams, and organisations raise funds successfully for years. These aren't just products-they're crafted treats that represent quality, local pride, and the kind of care that makes fundraising feel rewarding.

When you offer Choice Fruit's artisan foods in your fundraiser, you're giving your supporters something they'll genuinely appreciate. Whether it's for a school trip, new equipment, or supporting a local cause, these products make fundraising feel less like selling and more like sharing something special with your community.

Pro Tips for Maximum Success

• Leverage Quality Story: Emphasise the artisan craftsmanship and Wairarapa origin. Quality stories justify premium positioning and create emotional connection.
• Create Variety Displays: If possible, showcase different products at school events. Visual variety drives impulse purchases and increases average order size.
• Survey Your Community: Consider asking supporters which products they'd prefer. Community input increases engagement and ensures you offer what people want.
• Emphasise Local Pride: Highlight the Wairarapa connection and support for local businesses. Local connection creates emotional resonance.
• Create Bundles: Offer themed bundles or variety packs. Bundles increase average order size and make decision-making easier.
• Create Urgency: Set clear order deadlines and remind supporters regularly. Limited-time opportunities create action and prevent procrastination.

Why Artisan Product Fundraisers Work

Artisan product fundraisers succeed because they offer genuine value. Your supporters aren't just donating-they're purchasing quality products they want and will enjoy. The craftsmanship, local connection, and proven success create a compelling proposition that makes selling easier and increases average order values.

The wide appeal also ensures broad participation, as everyone appreciates good food. It's fundraising that feels valuable, meaningful, and rewarding for everyone involved.
