“We are thrilled to offer our retailers more local options for stocking sweet, succulent strawberries,” said Jim Roberts, president of sales at Naturipe Farms. “Our experience growing strawberries, along with blueberries and other produce in Florida, directly benefits both the retailer and the customer. We’re looking forward to growing our operations in Florida even further as we move forward.”
The expansion boasts benefits for retailers and customers alike. In addition to increased availability of Naturipe’s strawberries for retailers in the region, the strawberries will have a decreased transit distance, longer growing seasons, and will be on the shelves closer to their harvest, resulting in optimal freshness.
Known for its commitment to sustainable farming and community collaboration, Naturipe Farms unites dedicated growers who share a deep connection to the land and a passion for producing high-quality berries. By integrating the local knowledge and commitment of Florida's farming community, Naturipe continues to enhance its reputation for delivering top-notch produce while fostering strong agricultural practices.
