Revol Greens doubles production capacity to meet organic demand
Owatonna, Minn.-based Revol Greens is expanding its production capacity after selling out of its new organic spring mix, green and red duo and romaine crunch line, launched in the first quarter of 2021.
The line is produced using a new, proprietary Plant Fed organic fertilizer free of animal byproducts, according to a news release.
“We knew that our Plant Fed nutrient source would meet a unique need in the market, but interest is outpacing expectations,” Brendon Krieg, vice president of sales and marketing, said in the release.
Revol Greens plans to become fully organic in all facilities. Later this summer, the company will open a Tehachapi, Calif., greenhouse, producing organic lettuce and blends. The increase in production space and capacity for its organic line will complement the existing broad assortment of conventional and organic head lettuces and baby leaf products.
“Access to supply is at the forefront of many customers’ minds, given the volatile food chain, transportation capacity challenges and underscored by demand for better-for-you and local and organically grown greens,” chief revenue officer Tom Thompson said in the release.
Revol Greens products are shipped daily throughout the Midwest.
