Progressive Produce's California flat sweet onions are officially in season. The company and its division, Keystone Fruit Marketing, are known for their comprehensive year-round sweet onion program that features a variety of onions from around the globe, including Vidalia's, Walla Walla and Mayan Sweets from Peru and Mexico. The addition of California flat sweet onions from Progressive Farms introduces a local variety known for its exceptional taste and versatility.

Available in a 40-pound carton and a two-pound bag, California flat sweet onions cater to both retail and foodservice providers. They present an opportunity to support local agriculture while reducing freight costs and environmental impact. “Opting for our California sweets not only supports regional farmers but also guarantees a fresher product for our customers," said Guzman.
