Sunripe Certified Brands Ramps Up For Southern Exposure; Jon Esformes Tells All



PALMETTO, FL - With Southeast Produce Council’s (SEPC) Southern Exposure comes a great opportunity to uncover all that the critical ag region has to offer. As a southern grower with operations in Florida, Georgia, and Tennessee, in addition to Mexico, Sunripe Certified Brands embodies the vitality of the region and the produce it provides.

Jon Esformes, Chief Executive Officer and Operating Partner, Sunripe Certified Brands“The southeast region represents a 12-month supply of the finest vegetables that are grown in the United States and, quite frankly, North America,” Chief Executive Officer and Operating Partner Jon Esformes begins. “We're really proud to be part of that farming and agricultural community, so it's natural for us to be excited about Southern Exposure, and it’s why we participate in all the SEPC shows.”

With farming operations spanning Florida to Tennessee, Sunripe is able to follow the sun each season, growing tomatoes in areas that provide the highest level of quality and consistency for its portfolio. The supplier’s Tennessee operation has expanded quickly over the last two years, allowing the company to achieve proximity that allows it to efficiently deploy resources and be in the most ideal farming regions for its fresh market tomatoes.
