Mastronardi Produce celebrates flavor and innovation at SEPC

Mastronardi Produce, a pioneer in the commercial greenhouse growing industry, is gearing up to showcase an array of exciting fresh produce innovations from the SUNSET brand at the upcoming SEPC Southern Exposure show in Orlando, Florida. This year’s event emphasizes the importance of fostering supportive community relationships within the Produce industry, drawing inspiration from the warm and welcoming spirit of Hawaii. Mastronardi Produce will highlight a flavorful selection of both new and returning products influenced by this theme – most notably, the Aloha Pepper, also inspired by Hawaii.

The SUNSET Aloha Pepper is a unique and vibrant striped sweet bell pepper variety set to be a key focus of the Mastronardi Produce booth. These peppers not only bring a striking visual pop of color to any plate but also offer a sweet, succulent flavor that will transport your taste buds to a tropical paradise. Chefs and culinary enthusiasts alike will find Aloha peppers perfect for creating gorgeous, gourmet island-inspired dishes any time of the year.

Attendees can look forward to seeing SUNSET Angel Sweet grape tomatoes, known for their extraordinary sweetness. Ripened in the greenhouse while still on the vine, these bite-sized tomatoes make a delightful healthy snack, whether at home, in lunches, or on the go. Their extra-sweet taste is hard to resist, and they remain a favorite in the snacking tomato category.

SUNSET Campari Tomatoes will also be featured, a staple to the brand since its debut 30 years ago. Campari Tomatoes were the first tomatoes to be branded by Mastronardi Produce and they remain a staple. This year, Mastronardi Produce celebrates the milestone with merchandising programs, ad campaigns, and fun consumer promotions. New celebration packaging highlights the flavor and history of the brand. With their balanced sweetness and acidity, these versatile cocktail tomatoes enhance a variety of dishes, from fresh salads to zesty salsas. Tomato lovers will find Campari Tomatoes essential for elevating their culinary creations.

The SEPC Southern Exposure show will be introduced to a new SUNSET product innovation, the latest in the Flavor Bombs premium snacking tomato line: Bombs Squad. As the demand for greenhouse-grown On-the-Vine tomatoes continues to grow, Bombs Squad presents a thrilling trio of distinct Bombs tomato varieties packaged together. This tomato medley is ideal for adding explosive flavor and texture to salads, charcuterie boards, or enjoyed alone as a flavorful snack. This three-variety assortment showcases a range of delicious flavors and vivid colors in one convenient package.

Since its founding in 1954, family-operated Mastronardi Produce has always put flavor and innovation at the forefront, looking to inspire consumers healthy living and “WOW” flavor experiences on a global scale. As such, the company has become known for high quality, freshness, and outstanding flavor, proving to be a valuable leader in the fresh produce sector.
