Crisp, juicy, and perfectly sweet — the Asian pear brings a fresh twist to fall menus.

Try it in a Korean-style short rib dish with Asian pear marinade or slice it thin for salads and slaws.

This seasonal gem adds crunch, balance, and elegance to every plate.

We had an incredible day exhibiting at the Sysco Food Show!⁠

Our FreshPoint South Florida team, along with our local farms and vendors, showcased 16 tables of fresh produce. It was a great TTS event with Sysco, European Imports, Edward Don, and hundreds of vendors. It was great to be able to connect with nearly 3,000 chefs and customers.⁠

We’re grateful for the opportunity to represent FreshPoint South Florida!

🥝 Kiwi season is here!

Chefs, this vibrant fruit is in its prime — sweet, tart, and full of color. Perfect for brightening up winter menus, from seafood and salads to sauces and desserts.

Try adding it to a kiwi-ginger vinaigrette over grilled chicken or diced into a fresh kiwi salsa for a citrusy punch.

Gold Chanterelles — prized for their golden color, delicate texture, and complex, earthy flavor, these mushrooms are a seasonal highlight in fall menus.⁠

Chefs value them for their versatility: they sauté beautifully in butter or oil, complementing risottos, pastas, and creamy sauces. Chanterelles also hold up well when roasted or folded into vegetable medleys, allowing their subtle fruity notes to shine.⁠

Beyond flavor, their distinctive trumpet shape and vibrant gold hue make them visually striking, adding both elegance and depth to dishes. A true seasonal ingredient that elevates taste, texture, and presentation. ⁠
