The Fruit Club, Sioux Falls SD - On Aug. 26, 2019 the USDA imposed sanctions on The Fruit Club, Sioux Falls, S.D., for failing to meet its contractual obligations to the sellers of produce it purchased. The Fruit Club failed to pay $367,040 to four sellers for produce that it purchased, received and accepted in interstate commerce from June 2016 to October 2017. This is in violation of the PACA.
