PARSIPPANY, NJ - The Green Giant Fresh® brand is known for its iconic, well, Green Giant standing proudly on the front of fresh produce packages, providing an easy grab for time-strapped shoppers looking to incorporate convenient vegetables into their diets. Following the lead of Green Giant®, a beloved vegetable brand in the frozen and canned aisles, Green Giant Fresh is the fresh produce branch of this well-known brand and is sold by B&G Foods’ licensed partners. B&G Foods, the company behind the Green Giant brand, is always at the forefront of trends—even setting them itself—and I couldn’t wait to get the scoop on the new and innovative options hitting shelves.

Steve DeFrino, Marketing Director, Frozen and Vegetables, B&G Foods“From carrots, mushrooms, potatoes, and corn to Brussels sprouts and broccoli, the Green Giant Fresh brand commands a presence in fresh produce through our network of licensed partners,” Steve DeFrino, Marketing Director, Frozen and Vegetables, B&G Foods. “The brand continues to grow in popularity by adding fresh and innovative options that make veggies exciting and convenient for the consumer. Our licensed Green Giant Fresh partners are always developing new mixes, blends, and meal-ready fresh vegetable products. Most recently, the new Green Giant Fresh Stir Fry Kits were introduced to provide consumers with a quick, nutritious, and satisfying meal without any of the prep work.”

Each Stir-Fry fresh vegetable blend is pre-cut and washed for ease of use and includes one of five delicious, flavorful sauces to toss with and enjoy. Sauce varieties come in Korean Kimchi, Chinese Black Pepper, Coconut Lime, Teriyaki, and Scallion Ginger for a wide range of delectable sides or main dishes.
