Wada Farms improves year-round availability organic potatoes in partnership with Genesis Organics

Wada Farms announced this week it has entered into a strategic partnership with organic potato packer Genesis Organics located in Southern Idaho.

This new exclusive partnership provides new avenues for growth in the organic potato category with most notable being a longer supply availability to service all retail and foodservice industries on a year-round basis.

Kevin Stanger, President, Wada Farms Marketing:
 

“The demand for organic produce continues to grow in an exponential fashion. Customers are asking for more organic options when it comes to potatoes, and we are proud to be able to respond to that demand.”

“This new partnership will further enhance our ability to be a one-stop shop pertaining to all things organic and conventional in the potato world.”

“We’re taking the pressure off buyers having to source from multiple locations throughout the year.”

“At the end of the day, we can provide fresh organic options with efficient, convenient supply chain solutions.”

Genesis Organics, working with Camas Organics, has developed an agriculturally proficient program that allows for premium quality that stands at the fore front of the organic potato industry.
