The leading supplier of indoor grown packaged salads will be showcasing and sampling their premium “Crunch Kit™ Salads” during IFPA’s Global Show (booth #4949) this October 27-29 in Orlando, Florida.

BrightFarms continues to meet customer demand for convenient, affordable, and healthful food by expanding the availability of its premium kits to more geographies across the country.
“As with all of our products, we strive to offer the freshest, tastiest greens by harvesting and delivering them to stores in as little as 24 hours,” “said Abby Prior, Chief Commercial Officer at BrightFarms. “We’ve seen strong consumer demand for our products, and we’re confident shoppers will love the fresh, convenient, and nutritious options now available to them.”
BrightFarms currently operates six high-tech greenhouse farms in Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Illinois, and New Hampshire, with big expansion plans underway. With availability in over 4,000 stores nationwide, consumers have access to fresh lettuce options that the whole family can enjoy.
