Repacking
Packaging produce has always been a key aspect of Horton Fruit’s success. Our founder, Albert G. Horton, was considered a pioneer in the pre-packing segment of the produce industry in the early 1950’s. That commitment to setting the standards and meeting the demands of the consumer continues today with our repacking operation. Repacking focuses on converting bulk produce to ready-to-buy products. Our repacking team continues to develop value-added package solutions designed to deliver produce to the exact size, color, and quantity requested.
The Horton Fruit repacking process starts with hand selecting and packaging each order based on the customer specifications of the selected produce. Our repacking team personally sorts through each case of product to ensure customers receive only the finest-in-grade product. In addition, Horton Fruit will custom package your private label.

We grow our own round and roma tomatoes 6 months a year. Custom packing and distribution flexibility enhance our services to maximize customer and consumer satisfaction.
