Del Fresco Pure® Brings Year-Round Freshness and Organic Lineup to Southern Innovations 2026; Ray Mastronardi Comments

KINGSVILLE, ON - Celebrating 70 years of growing excellence, Del Fresco Pure® is bringing seven decades of greenhouse expertise and year-round produce innovation to Nashville for Southern Innovations. As first-time exhibitors, attendees are invited to visit Booth #414 to explore the company’s expanding line of certified organic produce, premium greenhouse commodities, and industry-leading social accountability standards.

70 Years of Forever Summer

Since its founding seven decades ago, Del Fresco Pure® has evolved from a local agricultural pioneer into a premier greenhouse grower operating under controlled environment agriculture. Grounded in its signature ethos, “You Bet We’re Fresh!” the grower delivers consistent, high-flavor tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and sweet peppers to retail partners 365 days a year—proving that quality produce knows no off-season.

At Southern Innovations, the company will prominently feature its certified organic offerings grown alongside its full greenhouse-grown lineup. Highlighting seven decades of continuous improvement in growing practices, Del Fresco Pure® also proudly operates as an Equitable Food Initiative (EFI) certified facility. This certification reinforces the company's commitment to rigorous food safety, environmental stewardship, and ethical workforce conditions.

"Reaching our 70th anniversary is a remarkable milestone for our team, our grower family, and our retail partners," said Ray Mastronardi, Vice President of Sales at Del Fresco Pure®, in the recent release. "Over seven decades, our priority has never wavered: innovating our growing practices while maintaining the highest standards for quality and taste. Southern Innovations in Nashville gives us the perfect backdrop to celebrate this legacy while showcasing our certified organic lineup and EFI-backed commitments for the future."

Visitors at Booth #414 can meet with the Del Fresco Pure® team to discuss tailored retail programs, explore eco-friendly packaging solutions, and see how 70 years of greenhouse mastery translates into produce aisle growth.
