REEDLEY, CA - Unified in purpose and elevating their programs together, Creekside Organics and Fruit World are championing a new chapter by bridging the future together. As the Organic Produce Summit quickly approaches on July 9–10, Bianca Kaprielian, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Creekside Organics, and Founder of Fruit World, joins me to highlight what the companies have in store for the annual show.

“At this year’s OPS, Creekside is championing a ‘Better Together’ theme, which is deeply reflected in our companies’ partnerships, values, and approach to the market and our customers,” Bianca tells me. “Our 50/50 merger between Fruit World and Creekside Organics is rooted in shared values—supporting family farms, doing business with integrity, and staying grounded in relationships. Together, we’re stronger, combining complementary strengths, regional diversity, and shared energy. This spirit of collaboration is guiding everything we do—and we’re excited to share it with you at OPS!”

They’ll also be showcasing their melon program, providing a perfect example of what makes them unique.

“It’s a reflection of our grower relationships, hands-on field management, and a real focus on flavor. Delivering exceptional organic fruit is what it’s all about!,” Bianca adds.

The OPS event brings best-in-class companies to the forefront, revealing the direction the industry is headed and showcasing the diversity of its companies. From eye-catching displays to shared values centered on stellar service and flavor, as well as their growing family of brands, including Fruit World and Capay Organics, Creekside is focused on how to best serve its customers.

“It’s a true partnership, and OPS gives us a great platform to celebrate that,” Bianca expresses. “Expect color, character, and a fresh take on collaboration. Our booth is designed to reflect the unique identities of Creekside Organics and Fruit World and how, coming together, we’re better! Visitors will find organic produce, deep farm knowledge, and a team that genuinely loves what they do. We’ll have some refreshing treats that show our blended product line, too!”

Along with their exhibitor platform, Creekside Organics will also be hosting events at its grower partners’ farms.

“This helps ground us in place and reminds us that the work we do is different. For Creekside, it’s never just about selling produce—it’s about building trust, fostering community, and staying connected to what’s real. Walking the fields, talking with growers, and witnessing the care behind every crop helps us reconnect with the deeper purpose behind the produce—and the people who make it all possible,” Bianca details. “This year, we’re excited to bring colleagues and customers out to the fields, including a dry-farmed tomato grower and a diversified farm growing greens, peppers, herbs, and more!”
