Southeast Distribution

Cold-Chain Delivery into Metro Atlanta

Atlanta is the distribution floor for the Southeast, and loads that land here are rebuilt and pushed back out across the region. That makes inbound quality a regional problem rather than a local one. Our Georgia growing region shortens the haul during its season, and our Texas and Southern Mexico regions carry the rest of the year. Everything is grown, harvested, field-binned and packed under one company, then moved on refrigerated full truckloads into Forest Park, South Fulton and the Gwinnett and Henry County warehouse belts, with the harvest lot documented on every load.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order for Atlanta delivery?
One full truckload. All of our freight moves as refrigerated FTL, whether the load is wholesale bulk or retail packaging. Send us your volume and pack requirement and we will confirm what is currently available.
Do you grow in Georgia?
Yes. Georgia is one of our five growing regions, alongside Southern Mexico, South Texas, West Texas and Florida. The regions rotate through the year so supply into Atlanta stays continuous rather than seasonal.
Which certifications do you hold?
We operate under PrimusGFS, GAP and GMP, and we comply with FSMA Rule 204 traceability requirements. We also run our own annual certification process across growing and packing. Ask your account contact for current documentation.
