HAMILTON, MT - We reported last week that leafy greens grower Local Bounti had launched a new duo of grab-and-go salads. As we kick off the International Fresh Produce Association’s (IFPA) Global Produce & Floral Show, a little birdie told us that Local Bounti will be bringing these new products to the show floor.
"We are excited for IFPA attendees to sample and experience our new restaurant-quality grab-and-go salads, which utilize our innovative method of indoor farming to sustainably grow fresher and more flavorful leafy greens," said Brian Cook, President. "We believe our Stack & Flow Technology™ is the future of farming and the reason behind our rapid growth into one of the largest CEA companies in the United States. With our high-tech greenhouse facilities around the U.S., we are able to provide consumers across the country with our superior produce varieties and salads that are grown sustainably with sunlight, use 90 percent less water and land, and last longer in your fridge."
The two new products include:
- Poppy Power – Local Bounti's Northwest-grown Romaine Crisp and Bok Choy are topped with antioxidant-packed cranberries and a colorful carrot and broccoli slaw. A powerful blend of seeds—pepitas, sunflower and flax—adds a satisfying crunch that is finished with a poppy seed dressing
- Modern Greek – Local Bounti's Northwest-grown Romaine Crisp topped with fresh tomatoes, feta, hearty quinoa, red onion, crunchy chickpeas, and chopped olives is finished with a Tzatziki dressing
A press release noted that IFPA attendees can visit booth #3253 to sample the new products and learn more about Local Bounti’s grab-and-go salad program, which is currently available in the Pacific Northwest, with plans to expand into the Southeast and West regions early next year.
Now roll up your sleeves and hit the show floor!
