Innatis (Pomanjou Group) has signed in 2017 the exclusive rights for the variety in en Europe, with a project of large commercial plantings.
Innatis has collaborated with IFO on finding a brand for HC2-1 : the apples will be marketed under the brand Zingy®. The brand graphics are bright and colourful. The brand was launched at the trade fair Fruit Attraction in Madrid in October 2019.
