A Team Built on Service.
Horton's team combines family ownership with hands-on produce experience. Buyers work with real people who inspect product, answer questions, and stand behind every delivery. Sales staff spend time in the warehouse and on the dock, so they know what is moving and what is fresh.
Procurement follows seasonal patterns and grower relationships to keep options steady. The repacking crew grades, packs, and labels every case with care. Logistics coordinates routes so deliveries arrive on time and in good condition. That steady, hands-on approach is what makes Horton a reliable produce partner.
Real Support Across Every Part of the Business.
Sales & Customer Support
The first voice you hear and the last check before an order ships. Our sales team builds programs, solves problems, and keeps communication moving.
Sourcing & Procurement
Deep grower and shipper relationships that fill gaps, lock in quality, and keep shelves stocked through every season.
Operations & Repacking
The hands that grade, pack, label, and inspect every case before it leaves our dock.
Logistics & Distribution
Refrigerated fleet coordination, routing, and on-time delivery — so your produce arrives the way it left.
Family-Owned Means Accountable.
At Horton, family-owned isn't just a headline — it's how the team operates. Decisions are made by people who know your name, and problems are solved by people who know the product. That culture shows up in faster communication, stronger customer relationships, and a pride that extends across every shift.
Responsive Communication
Phones answered, questions answered, and issues handled without passing you around.
Long-Term Relationships
We treat every account as a partnership, not a transaction.
Pride in Every Order
The Horton name is on the box, so the team treats every shipment like it reflects the family.
"The people behind the produce matter as much as the product itself. That's the difference a dedicated team makes."
