Anthony Innocenti and Carrie Briones Dish on LIV Organic^™ Produce New Retail Launch

LIV Organic^™ Produce is sitting atop a treasure grove (pardon the pun), entering the 2022 Mandarin season with double last year’s seedless organic Mandarin volume, premium quality, and a new bag to showcase them.

“This year has been particularly challenging for the seedless Mandarin market as a whole, due to extreme heat, packing house shutdowns, and more. But growing in California’s San Diego County has given us an edge in not only providing dependable organic seedless Mandarin volume, but superb flavor and quality as well,” shares Managing Partner and Co-Founder Anthony Innocenti.

Amid tight markets for organic seedless Mandarins, the company has been steadfast in providing tree-ripened fruit ready and waiting for its retail partners. And it is showcasing this advantage with the introduction of its new organic seedless Mandarin bag.

“Our biggest strengths lie in our capability to offer custom packing, private label branding, and shipping across the United States from our Oceanside, California, packing house,” Carrie Briones, Head of Sales and Grower Relations, shares when I ask about the significance the bag marks. “With this new bag, we are able to tell a little bit more of that story. We’ve become a force in the organic citrus category by being consistently available in niche seasonal windows and ensuring our retail partners are supported.”

Hitting its stride from one limited time frame to the next, LIV Organic is kicking off an 8–10 week seedless organic Mandarin season with a bang, promising amazing quality and maximized grower returns from its ideal location.

“Not only do we allow the fruit to ripen on the tree, preparing to be eaten on its terms, but we are one of the last packing houses in the area, and we are expanding,” Anthony shares, explaining that the space is cost-effective with lower transit times. “Our growers are saving on transportation at a time when many are getting killed on freight costs, not to mention being better for the fruit.”

With a near-instantaneous reaction time, packing six days a week, 10 hours a day, LIV Organic Produce’s organic seedless Mandarins are here. Order while you can!
