Default Lookup the last occurance of a value in a list

Hello

I am trying to find out if there is a way or work around to use vlookup in a
list where it finds the last occurance of an item and gives the corresponding
value in relation to it.
Eg.

Pear 5
Apple 5
Orange 3
Plum 2
Apple 1

I need it to look at the last occurance of Apple and return the value 1, but
the problem is the vlookup finds the first occurance only and returns 5.

Any ideas anyone.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Regards,
