Keystone Fruit Marketing of Greencastle, Pa, a division of Progressive Produce, got an early June start for the Walla Walla sweet onion season out of Washington state.
Grown in a unique region and cultivated by third-generation growers, Walla Walla sweet onions are known for their exceptional sweetness and consistent quality.
“One of the things that sets Walla Walla sweet onions apart is where and how they’re grown,” said Dan Borer, Keystone Sales and Commodity Manager. “From the region itself to the fact that growers produce their own seed, it all contributes to delivering one of the sweetest onions available.”
Market conditions are expected to remain steady, with key promotional opportunities around Independence Day and throughout July.
