When Agricola El Rosal and JemD International announced the merger completion in 2010, our brand transition strategy was put into motion. <b>Our expanding product and customer base, determined the timeline which brings us to today,</b> our announcement date,” said Jim DiMenna, President. “As we continue to grow and build more greenhouses across North America that further increases our retail business segment, we wanted to finalize our brand identity with one the consumer could identify with during and after their shopping experience. With this goal in mind, we’ve gone to our roots with Red Sun Farms.” </p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p>Consumers are already familiar with Red Sun, the brand has been on the company’s exclusive basket weave Artisan Series packaging, in the news and on the consumer table for over a decade. </p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p><img class="small-cropped-image" src="https://cdn.andnowuknow.com/legacySmallCroppedImages/sabrina_pokomandy_00.jpg" alt="cropped_image_051214" style="width: 100px;" />“We are pleased to reach the next phase of our implementation strategy with our new name officially unveiled. <b>The goal of the brand transition strategy is to further connect with our consumers on all platforms, internally and externally.</b> Our customers already identify and have placed their buying confidence in the ‘Red Sun’ brand so this was a natural next step.
