Guaranteed quality

We source only the best available produce to create Fresh Cuts at our state-of-the-art facility, delivering consistent high quality and a guaranteed shelf life to our customers.

• We closely monitor your product through our distribution cold chain from procurement all the way to the delivery at your door on our refrigerated trucks.

• Every product has a guaranteed shelf life to assure you fresh, ready-to-eat products for every penny of your produce purchases.

Cost savings

• Fresh Cuts offer 100% yield and zero waste, all at a more predictable price point. Reduce your kitchen’s labor cost and risk of injury.

• Reduce food costs with more manageable portion control: Eliminate the inconsistent yields that come with changing seasonal conditions and changing personnel.

• Reduce labor costs: Save on your labor in chopping, slicing and dicing and get a consistent cut time after time.

• Reduce cooler storage space need: Fresh cut product on average takes only 1/3 the space needed for whole product storage.

• Reduce Workers’ Compensation claims: Fewer on-site injuries during production.

• Fresh Cut produce from BIX offers a 100% yield and is ready-to-eat.
