FreshPoint
With unmatched fresh produce, knowledge and experience, FreshPoint provides today’s chefs with the ingredients to create tomorrow’s culinary success.
Over the last few decades, we have seen revolutionary changes in the produce industry—from refrigerated trucks and fresh-cut produce to submitting and processing orders online. With these innovations, our passion for produce and commitment to helping our customers succeed remains unchanged.
Why is this time of year so important to our industry?
During the annual field transition, fall weather can be erratic as warm and cool temps alternate while the season changes...and this will have an effect on produce in the field.
Our QA team is in the field inspecting what makes the cut and keeping us all in the loop via the FreshPress.

Persimmons are luscious, colorful, and packed with fall flavor — a perfect ingredient to elevate seasonal menus. 🍂
Chefs can slice them fresh for salads, roast them to intensify their natural richness, or purée them into sauces, dressings, and desserts. Their silky texture and bright, honeyed notes pair beautifully with warm spices, creamy cheeses, and savory proteins.
A simple way to add color, depth, and a touch of elegance to any fall dish. 👨🍳
