We have trade programs running in Germany to develop increased awareness and purchase of California walnuts by consumers while supporting trade on new and exciting channels for usage as a key ingredient in packaged foods.

We work with importers, wholesalers, nut processors, manufacturers and retailers to increase the sales of California walnuts in Germany and to grow the market for California walnuts.

With trade support and news, including our website, the CWC will keep the trade both up-to-date on activities and offer promotional support where needed.

• Point of Purchase (PoP) & in-store promotions
