PL Thomas Partners with Just the Berries

PL Thomas, Morristown, NJ, has joined forces with Just the Berries of Palmerston North, New Zealand, a grower and processor of black currant derivations (Ribes nigrum L). The agreement calls for PL Thomas to be the exclusive North American sales and marketing representative for this potent antioxidant ingredient. Black Currants have been named “King of Berries” because they contain several times the concentration of potassium, magnesium, iron, calcium, vitamins A, B, & C, other trace minerals, organic acids and phenolics than any other fruit. Just the Berries’ Black Currant ingredients have been tested in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study showing benefit in eye health and vision support.
