Welcome to What’s In Store. Pier-C Produce, a year-round supplier of onions and carrots, and seasonal producer of green peppers and beets, is introducing a new item to its produce lineup: Nantego Carrots. These super sweet carrots, give retailers the option to market a new variety of carrot with an emphasis on flavour. A Brix test for sweetness scores Nantes carrots exceptionally high in sugar content, providing a unique way for retailers to differentiate their carrot category.


Sold under the Nantego Label, these flavorful carrots are packed in 1 lb. Styrofoam trays, shrink wrapped for freshness. The item ships with 15 units per master box and is distributed with the company’s regular year-round and seasonal items.
Pier-C offers retailers the comfort of Primus GFS certification in its facilities in Central Mexico, with Mexican supplies lasting from now until the end of July when the company will transition to its Canadian operations. Food safety is top of mind for Pier-C which offers an unprecedented food safety program at all of its facilities, as well as in every one of the company’s fields in Mexico.
Nantes carrots are now sold, warehoused and distributed out of McAllen, TX, bringing a fresh new offering to its expanding Pier-C line. Pier-C, with its eye on growth and innovation, is the only company in Mexico offering a full line of Carrot Retail options to its customers across North America. Pier-C ships to all major markets in the US, Canada and overseas. Thank you for watching What’s In Store.
