Beyond blackberries, we continue to expand our value-added segment with convenience-driven snack items, including our new line of ready-to-eat blueberry cups. We’ re also scaling our sustainable packaging initiatives across multiple categories and preparing to launch several new varietal introductions in both berries and asparagus. Each of these efforts underscores our ongoing commitment to innovation and to delivering the highestquality fresh produce to our customers.”
To support the diversification of its offerings, Alpine Fresh constantly reinvests back into its farms and packing operations. Walter sheds light on some of the company’ s most recent investments.
“ Continuous reinvestment is at the heart of our business model. Recently, we have expanded our operations in Mexico, the US, Chile and Peru, focusing on planting the best varieties available in the world. Furthermore, we have made significant commitments to invest in Europe, Africa and China. These investments also include the latest in sustainability initiatives, such as compostable packaging for Hippie Organics asparagus and recyclable film solutions across many of our product lines. Not only do these investments enhance operational efficiency, but they also align with our environmental commitments and support our retailers’ sustainability goals,” he reveals.
