Giumarra Adds Year-round Sweet Onions
Giumarra Cos., a Los Angeles-based international network of fresh produce growers, has entered into an agreement with G&R Farms, in Glenville, Ga.., to distribute the latter’s onion crop, including that of its partner growers in Peru, Mexico and Texas. All three farms use the same sweet onion varieties, ensuring the same mild, sweet flavor. G&R’s Georgia operations qualify to grow and ship Vidalia onions, but only onions grown in 20 select south Georgia counties may be marked as Vidalias.
Varieties include 10-, 25- or 40-lb bulk boxes, as well as 2-, 3-, 5-, 10, and 25-pound bags. Giumarra will launch the product with a contest-driven collaboration featuring Vidalia sweet onions and California-grown avocados just in time for Fourth of July grilling promotions. Giumarra.com
