PHILADELPHIA, PA - AgroFresh Solutions is upping its commitment to ensuring its partners feel supported at each step of the supply chain, announcing a refreshed promise to the produce industry. With a mission “to empower the business of fresh at every step, helping customers produce abundant, sustainable, quality fresh produce for all,” the innovator is helping its partners address some of the most pressing industry challenges.
“As the global post-harvest leader, everything we do at AgroFresh supports this promise,” says Clint Lewis, Chief Executive Officer of AgroFresh. “We look at fresh produce challenges customers may encounter from every angle and deliver answers in a comprehensive and innovative portfolio of near- and post-harvest solutions that help customers overcome quality and ripening challenges faced at every stage of the value chain.”
The refreshed brand promise is accompanied by an updated look, which was unveiled for the first time at Fruit Logistica in Berlin, Germany, yesterday, February 7.
As a press release explained, the company’s refreshed mission follows AgroFresh’s expansion of solutions, now including the cutting-edge SO2 intelligent packaging technology for table grapes, berries, and flowers.
The mission is set to guide AgroFresh’s strategic growth as the solutions provider further focuses on its customers' needs and supports them in their efforts to grow and distribute an abundant supply of quality fresh produce. As part of this ambitious strategy, AgroFresh recently acquired Tessara—a provider of intelligent packaging solutions for preserving fresh produce—to expand its capabilities.
“We are investing in customers’ success by providing science-based, data-driven solutions across the food supply chain that reduce food loss and waste, help preserve the planet’s resources, and enhance the quality and shelf-life of fresh produce,” notes Duncan Aust, Chief Technology Officer at AgroFresh. “Our commitment comes from 40 years of delivering innovative products, services, and digital solutions to better protect and preserve the planet through prolonged produce freshness, reduced food waste, and significantly less food loss. Sustainability and innovation are at the core of what we do in service to our customers.”
