A Harrogate fruit and vegetable company is up for sale.

KD Fruiterers, a family-run business based outside Harrogate District Hospital, today took to social media to announce the news.

In a video shared on Facebook, owners Kris Dickinson and Cat Recchia said although they have “worked very hard to build KD”, the couple feel it’s time to “start a new chapter”.

Since launching the business in 2018 the couple have started a family, they said, and are now looking for someone to take over KD Fruiterers so they can “realign” their work-life balance.

The owners added:

The Stray Ferret approached KD Fruiterers about the sale. Ms Recchia said:

The owners said the company's delivery service would also be included in the sale, but did not disclose the asking price of the business.

The video assured existing customers that the current owners will “continue to provide the same great service” until the change of ownership, and the couple urged people to “please stick with us and we will keep you informed”.

KD Fruiterers asked those looking for more information to contact Ms Recchia on 07837100009.
