Pure Flavor® Growing Momentum with New Products, Awards, and Expansion

Leamington, ON (June 21st, 2018) – Greenhouse vegetable production is in full swing in every region of North America which is meeting surging consumer demand heading into the heart of summer. Pure Flavor®’s family of growers are producing more than ever before fueling the company’s momentum in the marketplace. This, in turn, is setting up opportunities to connect with retail & foodservice partners at the United Fresh Trade Show & Convention in Chicago, June 26-27.

“We have a very positive momentum in the marketplace and gaining more steam season over season. Coupled with our brand refresh, increased acreage & product offering, expansion to Georgia, and now receiving Greenhouse Awards for Best Overall Cucumber, Best Cocktail Cucumber, and Best Beefsteak Tomato Grower, it’s been a busy year for us and we are only in June!”, said Jamie Moracci, President.

As a vertically integrated grower/marketer, Pure Flavor®’s year-round programs are supported by a family of growers across many regions to ensure consistency in supply.

With increased acreage and demand for more products, Pure Flavor® will be launching 2 new items at the United Fresh Trade Show & Convention; a Fresh Salsa Kit & a Fresh Guacamole Kit. This in addition to rolling out new top seal packaging for its complete line of snacking tomatoes. Pure Flavor® will be showcasing these items, including their very popular and kid-friendly Mini Munchie Snack Sized Veggie Program in the Featured Product Showcases at the trade show.

“The Fresh Salsa Kit & Fresh Guacamole Kit were created in formats that are convenient for both retail & club stores, the kits touch on everything fresh for the DIY enthusiast”, stated Matt Mastronardi, Executive Vice-President. “Consumers want to spend more quality family time together creating flavorful meals. Fresh focused meal solutions like the Salsa & Guacamoles Kits are fast, easy, and fun! The beauty of these kits is that you can customize them as you see fit to add in your own flavors”, said Mastronardi. (Link: http://www.pure-flavor.com/FreshKits2018 )

“Our Georgia greenhouse project is moving along swiftly with the first phase of 25 acres scheduled to be completed late this summer”, said Moracci. The company announced in late 2017 that the expansion to Fort Valley, GA would be a 3-phased approach with a total of 75 acres of high tech greenhouses being built over a 5-year period. “By growing year-round in the southeast, it will allow us to reduce food miles to our customers while consumers get to enjoy fresher product on the shelves”, add Moracci.
