Naturipe Farms celebrated its one hundred year anniversary with the growers and staff of one of the company’s partner-owners, Naturipe Berry Growers (NBG), on Friday 5 May.
The festivities were held at the Naturipe headquarters in Salinas, California, and included live mariachi music, a Naturipe branded semi-truck, and a presentation of proclamations from Western Growers Association and the Office of Senator Anthony Cannella, of which NBG President Rich Amersehhi accepted on behalf of the company.
“It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to congratulate Naturipe for having reached 100 years – and doing so with pride for what they do, passion and integrity,” said Tom Nunez, board representative of the Western Growers Association, who presented Amersehhi with a proclamation.
“This is one of several celebrations Naturipe Farms will host in honour of the company’s centennial year,” said Kyla Oberman, Naturipe’s director of marketing. “We have appreciation events planned during key trade and industry events throughout the year as way to pay tribute to our growers, and thank those who have helped Naturipe reach this milestone.'
