Advanced Technology & Systems
A monitored chlorinated wash system removes bacteria or pathogens prior to grading and sorting. To properly sort tomatoes, the Compac machine takes approximately 30 pictures per tomato as product passes through the line. The automated sorter then sorts by grade, size and color to improve the consistency of each box of tomatoes.

Ripening Rooms
State-of-the-art ripening / refrigerated coolers equipped with advanced air circulation systems maintain product at optimum temperatures. The push-back racking systems also dramatically improve the operating efficiencies and inventory control of the warehouse.
Refrigerated Docks
Our refrigerated docks and bulkhead insulation ensure that product maintains the proper temperature as it flows in and out of the warehouse.
Transportation
Product is primarily transported on our company-owned modern fleet that meets or exceeds safety standards. We utilize the latest technology in temperature control and monitoring to ensure proper cold-chain management. Additionally, the air-ride suspension reduces the impact on product.
