The Story

South Canterbury blackcurrant growers, and husband and wife, Tony and Afsaneh Howey, have always been passionate about health and well-being. In 2011, they turned that passion into their family-run company - ViBERi - offering 100% organic New Zealand blackcurrant products. At ViBERi the mission is to make blackcurrants part of our diet, 'Every day in any way'. The entire ViBERi range is created from our finest, freshly picked New Zealand blackcurrants, with all the goodness of the blackcurrant packed inside thanks to snap freezing straight from the orchard. From the fertile soils under the shadow of New Zealand's Southern Alps the organic ViBERi blackcurrants get their rich color, flavor and nutrients.

The Benefits of Blackcurrants

Superfood + Superfruit

Blackcurrants not only contain extraordinary levels of Vitamin C and potassium, but have an impressive amount of one of nature's most powerful antioxidants, anthocyanins, responsible for the berry's rich purple color. What's more, New Zealand-grown blackcurrants contain more antioxidants than their European counterparts due to the growing conditions and different varieties.

High levels of Vitamin C contribute to:
Neurological function
Immune system function
Reduction of tiredness and fatigue
Collagen formation
Protection from free radical damage

High Anthocyanin levels contribute to:
Muscle recovery
Sport performance
Eye health Heart health
Brain health

The Farm

Our philosophy at ViBERi is about creating real, New Zealand grown, wholesome products that are nutritionally superior. It's also about ensuring a sustainable way of growing - to look after the land.

As the farm is certified organic, we do not use any preservatives or additives, nor do we use chemical herbicides or pesticides, the blackcurrants are grown using totally natural methods, free of any nasties.
