ANAHEIM, CA - There’s magic afoot in the sustainability sector! Oppy has once again brought its A-game to the produce industry, introducing something that caught everyone’s eye at International Fresh Produce Association’s Global Produce & Floral Show.
“We recently launched a brand-new sustainable avocado pack that is 100 percent home compostable,” shared Garland Perkins, Oppy’s Director of Innovation and Sustainability. “It's different from other compostable options on the market […] in that our netting, as well as our label, can break down in your backyard in as little as 12 weeks. It's also different in that our cellulose is made from sustained sourced beechwood.”
This launch is not alone, however, as the company also shared with the industry the launch of two value-added products: Avocado Blend and Avocado Halves.
“[They] cater to a variety of culinary needs as well as foodservice options. We bring this to market in partnership with Eco Farms and Avoworks,” Garland noted.
One of Oppy’s strengths is that it helps its retail and foodservice customers tell the story behind these products, furthering their partners abilities to hit their bottom line. From an environmental standpoint, these two products are great selling points!
But don’t just take our word for it, watch the video and hear it from Garland herself!
