Congratulations to our own Sal Rizzo, who marks an incredible 45 years with the Grant J. Hunt Company on March 3rd! It’s been a long and rewarding journey—and while we may never know exactly how many onions and potatoes he’s moved over the years, we know it’s more than a few!
Cheers to you, Sal, for your dedication, hard work, and the many memories along the way. Happy anniversary! Feel free to reach out to him and say congrats!

🌟 One of our favorite graphics each year is our Grant J. Hunt Company Top 10 Produce Items of the Year. 🌱
🍽️ Once again, our Top 5 remained identical and in the same order:
🥇 Onions 🧅
🥈 Potatoes 🥔
🥉 Berries 🍓🫐
🏅 Apples 🍎
🏅 Pears 🍐
(Although 🍓 Berries and 🍎 Apples were within a load or two of each other!)🍉 Melons climbed to #6, duking it out with 🍒 Cherries in another tight race. 🍇 Grapes and 🍓 Cranberries held strong at #8 & #9, while 🍑 Stonefruit narrowly beat 🍊 Citrus to grab the #10 spot.
📊 Stay tuned!We usually share the next 5 items here, but we’ve seen growth in other categories this year. We'll be producing a second chart soon featuring our #11-20 items!

Cherries in Washington State are growing! We expect an end of May/early June update.
Our top 10 produce items of 2023 are in and our top 5 items remained the same as last year: Onions, Potatoes, Berries, Apples, and Pears. Cherries moved up to #6 from #8 in 2022, and Melons, Grapes, Cranberries, and Citrus rounded out the top 10.

Our marketing director sampled #30daysofapples - checkout the details on our Facebook and Linked in pages.
We love getting out and seeing fresh produce being packed! Recently we watched some gala apples and Anjou pears in Washington state.
We had a great time at this year`s IFPA Global Produce and Floral Show in Anaheim, CA. Thanks to everyone who came and saw us at the GrubMarket booth!
The 2023 Northwest Cherry season continues as we close out the month of July this week. Did you know fresh and sweet cherries are available until late August and beyond even? The season now runs from April starting with California and clear into September with some higher elevation cherries in the Pacific Northwest and cherries from Canada.
Cherry blossoms in the Yakima Valley! The season will start in June!
Onions are annually one of our top moving fresh produce items. From California to the Pacific Northwest. If you`re looking for an additional onion supplier with a long history of great onion partnerships give us a call at 510-569-0304.
Did a potato tour this past week. Saw some great looking Russet potatoes! #potatoes
It’s cherry bloom time in Washington State! We toured orchards this week and saw Rainiers, Chelans, the Audra Rose and more in bloom!
It`s hard to believe 2022 almost has its first month in the books already. We looked back at our 2021 sales, and these were our top 10 items sold for last year. Potatoes and onions remained #1 & #2 for us and melons jumped from 10th to 9th place.
We can`t wait to see how 2022 plays out, and as always - if you want to learn more about any of our items, or are looking for representation give us a call or shoot us a message here.

These modern apple packing lines are impressive AND huge! The amount of technology utilized to get a piece of fruit into a box is truly remarkable!

We currently have Golden Berries/Cape Gooseberries loading at our Oakland office facility.
Golden Berries are popular in jams and preserves and have a sweet/mild tart flavor. Give us a call!

It’s always fun to be at various apple packing line locations throughout Washington State!
Apple season in Washington State is winding down. We came across these braeburns being picked this past week.
Shipped sample boxes of EverCrisp apples to some customers and foodies!
Cosmic Crisp is one of the newer apple varieties and it is sweet and delicious. We checked out some amazing ones yesterday. #apples #CosmicCrisp #washingtonapples #freshproduce #freshapples
Size 72 honeycrisp apples on the left. Size 36 honeycrisp apples on the right. The size refers to the number of apples in a standard 40lb box. Sizes 64-88 are the most common in produce departments for bulk apples. Bagged apples use smaller apples for the most part. A size 36 could feed a family!

Have you tried a Honey Belle Pear yet?
Our Oakland headquarters just taste sampled the Honey Belle pear from New Zealand and definitely were impressed!
We will have them available in 3 sizes starting in mid March. The pear tends to produce a smaller size profile, and we are expecting our initial peak sizing to be in the 50-59mm size range which is about 90-110 in our U.S. pear sizing. It is a crisp and juicy pear and has very low acid. It is also known as a super sweet pear and has proven popular in Asian markets. It`s often described as the perfect snacking pear.
If you`re interested, shoot me a DM.
