Supply and logistics challenges are easier to tackle when you have the right supply-side partner in your corner. Guided by its market positioning, Rooted in Resilience, Ready for Tomorrow, Baloian Farms continues to invest in integrated vegetable programs designed to simplify procurement and support long-term customer planning.
Demand is starting to strengthen on dry vegetable items out of Mexico. “We are definitely seeing demand starting to change,” says Jay Angulo of Baloian Farms, noting it works with grower partners in Mexico to bring in product via Nogales, Arizona for the winter season which generally runs October to April-May.
Production will begin next week on Fresno, California’s wet vegetable program. “We’re going to start with Romaine, red leaf, green leaf and butter lettuce and from there, we’ll start adding in other items,” says Jay Angulo of Baloian Farms, noting that much of the program will start next month.
Baloian Farms is a fourth-generation, family-owned farm that specializes in growing premium bell peppers year-round. As a vertically integrated operation, we oversee every step—from planting and harvesting to packing, cooling, and distribution—to ensure top quality and freshness.
The International Fresh Produce Association’s Foodservice Conference is taking place July 31 to August 1, and suppliers across the industry are preparing to showcase their products. I recently connected with Richard Cowden, Sales, to hear what Baloian Farms has in store.
Baloian Farms, a family-owned agricultural company with over a century of history in farming and a long-standing reputation for premium quality vegetables and exceptional customer service, is pleased to announce the appointment of Diana Ybarra to the position of Account Manager.
