LIVE FROM THE FIELDS: YUMA, ARIZONA ICEBERG LETTUCE
November 08, 2018
Please click here to view a Markon Live from the Fields video about how Markon’s RSS salad processors make their seasonal production move from Salinas, California to Yuma, Arizona.
- Markon’s suppliers of value-added salad items follow the seasonal lettuce transition in the fall and spring
- Relocating their processing capabilities allows them to pack the freshest product possible and achieve optimum quality and shelf-life
- The process of disassembling, transporting, and reassembling equipment for full-scale production in less than three days is a huge undertaking
- By the week of November 19, all of Markon’s Salinas-based value-added suppliers will be shipping from Yuma, Arizona
Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.
