Frank Donio Inc., a longtime Jersey Fresh grower, packer and wholesaler, has been a member of the Eastern Produce Council since it was founded and look forward to the New York Produce Show & Conference every year. 

In fact, the New York Produce Show was the very first trade show that Annie Pape, special projects and brand manager for the Hammonton, NJ-based company, ever attended and the company had a booth for much longer than that. 

Marice Auerbach Inc., a leading distributor of garlic and specialty produce in the Northeast, continues to make its mark as one of the most recognized names in the industry. Based in Secaucus, NJ, the third-generation, family-owned company sources a wide range of products from around the world under its AuerPak brand, focusing on garlic, shallots and an array of specialty offerings that include tropical and Asian produce, as well as organic garlic, asparagus, ginger and tofu.

While viewed as a more urban area that caters to two major metropolitan areas in the north and the south, New Jersey has a lot going for it when it comes to the produce industry. 

The “Wow” Factor. 

That is the strategy at Fowler Farms with its top officials constantly looking for ways to stand out in a crowded field in the apple business. 

Misionero is showcasing two major updates at the New York Produce Show: a complete rebrand of its Garden Life Washed & Trimmed line and two new additions to its Earth Greens Organic portfolio.

Officials at TMK Produce hope that teaming up with other local operations can pay dividends for them at the New York Produce Show. The Philadelphia-based company will again be part of its hometown Philadelphia Wholesale Produce Market exhibit and expect the larger booth with more companies will catch the eye of attendees at the Jacob Javits Convention Center.
