From hosting The Foundation for Fresh Produces' Retail Dietitian tour and connecting with our industry friends and colleagues, to the much-anticipated debut of our brand-new Belli Berries—the International Fresh Produce Association #GPFS25 was a huge success. We were absolutely thrilled to finally introduce Belli Berries: the first-of-its-kind fresh blueberry boosted with probiotics. This is a game-changer for the produce aisle, featuring a 100% plant-based probiotic blend from the incredible team at Wonder Veggies. Thank you to everyone who stopped by! It was wonderful sharing the future of functional fresh produce with you all.
