By GlobalDataSéverine Brault, marketing manager at Streamline Foods, said: “Fruit Shoot Fruit bars are a win-win for both kids and parents. Parents will be able to give their children a healthier and convenient snack from a much-loved brand and children will be happy to open their lunchbox to find something they want to eat.”
