Westmoreland-TopLine Farms' Jimmy Coppola Discusses the Company's U.S. Cucumber Expansion
LEAMINGTON, ON & PA, USA - Westmoreland-TopLine Farms is growing its offerings and increasing product volume this year with a new seedless cucumber expansion in the U.S. The first harvest recently kicked off in Pennsylvania, and as Jimmy Coppola, Account Marketing Manager tells me, quality has been top notch.
“Our USA Grown Seedless Cucumbers complement our current production and give retailers on the East Coast an opportunity to take advantage of the Grown Close to Home message,” Jimmy says.
As Westmoreland-TopLine Farms continues to build on this project, the company hopes to be able to provide year-round availability for retail partners. In addition, this expansion aligns nicely with the company’s growing business model to create a well-rounded program with offerings from Canada, Mexico and now the U.S.
“Demand in the USA is strong for cucumbers and we feel there is still great growth potential in seedless cucumbers within the USA,” he adds. “So, to choose this category was a given.”
Westmoreland-TopLine Farms’ USA Grown Seedless Cucumbers will be marketed under the company’s premium TopLine Farms brand. The packaging will be very similar to Westmoreland-TopLine Farms’ existing look but will be emblazoned with the company’s “Grown in the USA” stamp logo.
