Salinas, Calif.-based Church Brothers Farms has “worked tirelessly” to expand its retail line of Green Giant Fresh products, said Rick Russo, senior vice president of sales and marketing.

“We are proud to present our new, reformulated Tuscan Tender Leaves, Ready Leaf and our Sweet Baby Cauliflower & Sweet Baby Broccoli,” he said.

“Our Sweet Baby products (cauliflower and broccoli) use our innovative and exclusive Stay Fresh packing technology, ensuring the highest-quality product and the most reliable shelf life in the industry,” he said.

Church Brothers recently began packing green leaf clamshells in the Green Giant Fresh brand and expanded its Whole Leaf facilities in Mexico, doubling the company’s capacity to produce whole leaf products.

“Along with this, we’ve rebranded our Ready Leaf product, which is the perfect foodservice leaf for sandwich and burger applications,” Russo said.

The company will have several new retail Green Giant Fresh product rollouts in the upcoming months, he added.
