LGS Specialty Sales adds mini avocados to lineup

Mini avocados will soon be available from LGS Specialty Sales, marketed under the Tiny Tim’s label.

“As we continue to respond to trends in the marketplace, Tiny Tim’s mini avocados were a natural fit in our product line,” Luke Sears, founder and president of the New Rochelle, N.Y.-based company, said in a news release. “We know that consumers are reaching for convenience items, so we’d like to provide a healthy option that fits their needs. Tiny Tim’s are an excellent on-the-go item for individuals who do not want to have to store the other half of their avocado.”

The new product is one of those featured on the new website LGS rolled out at Fresh Summit in October, https://www.lgssales.com/. The site includes a description of each product and provides growing region information, storage and basic usage tips, and recipes.

LGS also sells larger avocados, under the Suavo Avocado brand.
