Santa Maria, Calif.-based Gold Coast Packing is now offering 2-pound packs of value-added vegetables in response to new consumer shopping patterns.

“Before COVID, smaller pack sizes dominated at the retail level, but as consumers shop less and cook at home more, our 2-pound retail items are the perfect pack size,” marketing coordinator Crystal Chavez said in a news release. “Our newest items, Brussels sprouts and broccoli-and-cauliflower floret blend, are perfect for trying new recipes at home, and they are guaranteed fresh, with a 16-day shelf life. A win-win for the busy work-from-home and teach-at-home lifestyle.”

Gold Coast’s 2-pound offerings include:

  • Broccoli florets
  • Cauliflower florets
  • Broccoli and cauliflower floret blend
  • Garden Blend (mix of broccoli florets, cauliflower florets and baby carrots)
  • Brussels sprouts
  • Broccoli slaw

Those items are available now to ship nationwide, along with the company’s other retail offerings, which include cauliflower rice, spinach and cilantro, per the release.
