It will also produce and market Del Monte’s new line of Del Cafe ready-to-eat fresh salads and snacks with protein.
“Canada is an important market for us and our investment in this facility in Toronto is a testament to our commitment to the country, our retail partners, and Canadian consumers,” says Dennis Christou, vice president of marketing, North America for Del Monte.
“While we have been able to offer whole fruits such as pineapples, bananas, melons, and avocados for many years, we are excited to expand our line in Canada to also offer fresh cut fruits and vegetables. This is a very successful category for us in the U.S. and we are looking forward to helping it grow further in this market.”
