Sensei Farms, an indoor agriculture company that operates in Hawaii and Ontario, says it has partnered with Weis Markets in the mid-Atlantic to expand its leafy green and salad mix product availability.

Weis Markets will feature five of Sensei Farms’ products including its Spring Leaf Mix, Green Lettuce Blend, Green Butter Lettuce, Red Lettuce Blend and Romaine Lettuce at 200 Weis Markets in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, West Virginia and Delaware.

Earlier this year, Sensei Farms unveiled its new sustainable packaging with a recyclable moisture-resistant paperboard tray, 360-degree product visibility and peel and reseal closure.

“This partnership reflects our shared commitment with Weis Markets to offer consumers higher quality, more sustainable choices in our surrounding communities,” Jessica Vasisht, senior vice president of sales and marketing of Sensei Farms, said in a news release. “The positive response to our new packaging has directly contributed to increased demand for our products. We believe this momentum will drive further growth for our brand as we continue to innovate.”
