Fruit Royale Inc. has been active in the production of premium table grapes in the San Joaquin Valley since 2004, working directly with its contracted growers on all aspects of fruit production—growing, packing, cooling, storing, logistics and sales.

California table grape growers have long sought innovative ways to grow a healthy product in a fruitful and efficient manner. Since 1972 the industry has funded viticulture research projects ranging from the development of new varieties to establishment of best cultural practices to the evaluation of pest management processes.

That’s where the California Grape Commission comes in. All of the commission’s work is about creating opportunity for California table grape growers to grow, pick, pack, ship and market a crop as efficiently and economically advantageously as possible.

Progressive Produce, a year-round grower, packer and shipper of fresh produce, grows thousands of acres of potatoes, onions, asparagus, citrus and other fruits and vegetables throughout North and South America, offering its produce 365 days a year.

Growing in the rich, organic muck soils of Wisconsin’s Marquette, Columbia, Sauk and Adams counties, Gumz Farms has a legacy of four generations of family ownership behind it. The Endeavor, WI-based company grows red and yellow potatoes, grows and sources yellow, white, red and sweet onions, and packs and ships all year-round.

Wada Farms, a family-run business, ranks among the largest suppliers of fresh potatoes, onions and sweet potatoes in the nation, boasting enduring partnerships across the United States and globally.

This year's California fresh fig season is earlier so retailers should start placing their orders now.
