PITTSBURGH, PA - Del Monte Foods, Inc., a division of Fresh Del Monte Produce Inc., one of the world’s leading vertically integrated producers, distributors, and marketers of fresh and shelf-stable produce, reaffirmed its long-standing connection to Pittsburgh by making the city its central hub.
“Pittsburgh has been an important part of our story for more than two decades,” said Mohammad Abu-Ghazaleh, Fresh Del Monte Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, in the recent release. “As we look ahead, we are proud to deepen our presence here while continuing to invest in the people, partnerships, and community that have supported us over the years.”
Del Monte Food’s history in Pittsburgh dates back to 2002, when the company acquired several iconic brands—including StarKist, 9Lives, and Nature’s Goodness—from Heinz. In 2021, Del Monte Foods relocated its Pittsburgh offices from the North Shore to Penn Center West in Robinson Township, marking a new chapter in its regional footprint while maintaining strong ties to the local community.
More than two decades later, the company’s Foods division is proud to call Pittsburgh its operational hub. In the near term, core functions for the Foods division—including supply chain, finance, commercial operations and research and development—will be anchored in the city. Notably, the presence of senior leadership in Pittsburgh marks a meaningful evolution, reinforcing the city’s role at the center of the division’s next chapter.
