Fuji Apple is typically large or very large and round, on average the size of a baseball. They contain between 9-11% sugars
by weight and have a dense flesh that is sweeter and crispier than many other apple varieties, making them popular with

consumers around the world. Fuji apples also have a very long shelf life compared to other apples, even without refrigeration.
With refrigeration, Fuji apples can last up to 5-6 months. Outside of Japan, the popularity of Fuji apples continues to grow. Fuji
apples account for 80% of China's 20 million tons grown annually, for example. Since their introduction into the U.S. market in
the 1980s, Fuji apples have continued to gain popularity with American consumers as well.
