<p><strong>Oceanside, CA</strong><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Oppenheimer has announced that Oceanside Pole tomatoes are back and better than ever. The season’s first Oceanside Pole tomatoes are being harvested now, and will be packed into two- and three-layer configurations. Oppenheimer created a partnership with renowned vine-ripe tomato producer Harry Singh, Jr., innovator of the Oceanside Pole growing method, last winter.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">“Oceanside Pole tomatoes have earned a reputation for flavor and quality over many years, and rightly so,” Aaron Quon, Vegetable Category Director for The Oppenheimer Group, states. “Harry Singh is an exceptional grower whose diligence and experience yields exceptional tomatoes. And now, Oppenheimer adds value to the program through our logistics and marketing expertise, as we focus on efficiently delivering the best premium tomato each and every time.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Mr. Quon also comments on the color sorting and staging that the Oceanside Pole tomatoes undergo, making them a differentiated product for Oceanside Pole customers this season. ”In the past, color sorting and staging took place off site and was undertaken by third parties. Now, we’re brought the process right into the pack house in Oceanside, minutes from where the tomatoes are being picked. By consistently matching the tomatoes with our customers’ specifications, we can deliver a true retail-ready pack.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Oppenheimer also plans to phase in a newly-designed carton for the tomatoes, which will reflect the heritage of the Oceanside, CA area. </p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href="http://www.oppyproduce.com/" target="_new"> Oppenheimer Group </a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
