Gary Clevenger Discusses Freska Produce International's Organic Mango Growth with Organic Produce Summit Preview
OXNARD, CA - There is something uniquely inviting about a produce department when it has a big, beautiful display of mangos at its threshold. It implies quality, differentiation, and thoughtfulness, words I associate with Freska Produce International. With decades steeped in the mango category, the company’s organic program has grown exponentially since its introduction in 2016. As the Organic Produce Summit is only a day away, Gary Clevenger, Managing Partner, joined me to preview the message Freska will be sharing with attendees: Think Organic Mangos, Think Freska.
“Organics now account for about 30 percent of our business, and we anticipate this to double over the next five years,” Gary revealed. “We've been nurturing this vision with our growers for the past six years, paving the way for this growth opportunity for our customers and our growers. Organics have been and will continue to be a cornerstone of our mango program, shaping our future trajectory.”
Come July 11, Freska will grace the trade show floor with its organic line of packaging as well as red varieties and yellow varieties and a year-round strategy to keep surety of supply for retail partners.
With different packing options, Fair Trade Certification, and more, Freska is bringing OPS a host of advantages and benefits across mango solutions.
“Freska offers the know-how and 20 years of expertise to execute robust programs and devise sales plans with retailers that will bring success to both our customers and our company,” Gary details. “We are excited to meet with attendees at OPS to discuss more on how we can elevate their programs.”
