Canning/Packing

Performance Foodservice tomato products are packed according to specific guidelines — a standard of quality gained through understanding our customers’ needs for more than 66 years. Our producers work closely with growers who manage fields for acceptable pH levels and harvest at the perfect time of year.

During the packing season, we test numerous samples through a rigorous process. Our producers perform detailed lab tests on the crop before entering the packing plant, and fresh fruit is rejected if not up to the required standards. We ensure that when our tomato products are packed, the cooking temperature is cooler than the industry standard. This process ensures a fresher, more robust tomato flavor and enables us to maintain the consistency of our brands year-after-year.
