Superfresh Growers says it will expand its Orchard Buddies packaging line, which launched n 2024. The new additions will include 2- and 3-pound organic apple and pear pouch bags as well as a 3-pound organic apple poly bag.
The Yakima, Wash.-based company says this expansion helps retailers build a complete organic apple and pear display.
The new bags feature unique orchard scenes and incorporate furry and feathery friends. The company launched the Orchard Buddies last year to help make organic apples more appealing to children and weave stories about nature and environmental stewardship.
The company says the pouch bags used in Orchard Buddies packaging is made from 100% low-density polyethylene, which are recyclable at locations that accept film recycling.
Superfresh Growers will showcase the new Orchard Buddies at its International Fresh Produce Association’s Global Produce and Floral Show booth, No. 3269. Superfresh Growers will also offer the second edition of its Orchard Buddies kids’ books, “The Orchard Buddies and the Newest Helper.”
