Fourth-Generation Grower Hapco Farms Highlights Fresh Solutions at 2024 NY Produce Show

Hapco Farms Highlights Four Generations of Growing Excellence and Full Produce Solutions at Booth 315, 2024 New York Produce Show & Conference

Hapco Farms made a strong impression at the 2024 New York Produce Show & Conference, showcasing their robust presence in the industry at booth 315.

As a company with over 75 years of history rooted in potato farming on Long Island, their participation highlighted their evolution into a leading supplier of fresh produce across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

The show, held at the Jacob Javits Center and the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel, drew thousands of industry professionals, providing Hapco Farms the perfect platform to emphasize their commitment to delivering year-round produce solutions.

With strategically placed storage and packing facilities, as well as an in-house transportation team, the company demonstrated how it meets the needs of major retailers and food service operators with efficiency and precision.

At the core of Hapco Farms’ success is its ability to manage every stage of the supply chain, from seed to sale.

Their partnerships with growers allow them to participate in the growing and harvesting processes, ensuring consistent quality.

Such a hands-on approach was a focal point of their exhibit, which drew significant attention from attendees looking for reliable, vertically integrated produce suppliers.

Attendees at the show were particularly interested in Hapco Farms’ ability to adapt to evolving industry demands.

Their ‘Fresh From the Start’ brand, for over 15 years, has offered freshness and variety to their customers.

These services, supported by multiple packaging facilities on both U.S. coasts, highlight the company’s commitment to innovation and partnership.

As a fourth-generation grower-founded business, Hapco Farms brings a wealth of knowledge and tradition to the table.

From their start as fertilizer manufacturers and potato packers under founder Henry A. Pollak, the company has grown into a leading name in the industry.

Their presence at the show underscored this legacy while reinforcing their position as a forward-thinking organization.

The New York Produce Show & Conference’s theme, “When Passion Becomes Action,” resonated strongly with Hapco Farms’ approach to farming and distribution.

Their exhibit reflected this ethos, highlighting how their long-term grower relationships and meticulous post-harvest processes ensure that produce is cooled, regraded, and repacked to meet specific customer needs.
