Eagle Eye Produce, a top tier grower and shipper of fresh produce, will start shipping new crop russet, red, and yellow potatoes from their packing facilities in Idaho this week.
Annual potato harvest is underway again for Eagle Eye Produce in Central and Eastern Idaho. Over the next few months, Eagle Eye growers will harvest thousands of acres of world-famous Idaho® potatoes.
“We anticipate a good harvest this year with excellent product available to go to market with, although this growing season has seen some challenges,” said Coleman Oswald, Director of Sales at Eagle Eye Produce, “we experienced higher than normal temperatures this summer with very little precipitation, which may lead to lower than anticipated yields. With the reduced yields, we are anticipating strong and active markets this season, which we are currently seeing take shape as harvest begins.”
Along with new crop, Eagle Eye Produce will be introducing new packaging, including new Harvest Select® retail bins. They have also invested heavily into their packing and storage facilities in Idaho over the past year, with state-of-the-art equipment that will reduce labor, improve quality, and contribute to more consistent packs year-round.
Eagle Eye Produce is proud to offer a wide array of retail and foodservice pack styles under several of their proven brands with the option for private labels and a national sales and marketing team to support their global customer base. Eagle Eye Produce’s year-round potato programs are fully integrated. This industry-leading structure allows for one-stop loading of russet, red, yellow, and value add products from their facilities in Idaho.
