Green PolkaDot Box Incorporated Announces 10-Year Pact for the Sale of Living Produce(TM) With Fresh Organics
13 August 2013 - 2:33PM
Green Polka Dot Box Incorporated (OTCBB:GPDB)
announced today that it secured a contract for the sale of its
Living Produce™ with
Fresh Organics LLC, an
international organic produce distributor headquartered of Miami,
Florida.
The 10-year contract, valued at over $616,000,000, will be
executed in several stages over the term of the
Agreement. Beginning in November 2013, the first phase
includes mandates for the development of organically grown bell
peppers in all color varieties, red and green leaf lettuce, romaine
lettuce, cucumbers and assorted tomato varieties, including organic
heirlooms. While the initial contract phase is limited to the
mentioned varieties, future phases will include a larger selection
of the Living Produce™ as growing and processing
capacities increase.
Green PolkaDot Box is extremely proud of its partnership
with Fresh Organics. Referring to the landmark agreement,
GPDB CEO Rod Smith commented: "Our deal with such
a high quality, reputable purveyor of organic produce is both an
equitable and significant move to ensure the growth of our Living
Produce™ program, leading to benefits for all health-minded
consumers."
Likewise, Marcus Meurs, president of Fresh
Organics, shares his enthusiasm about the Agreement: "Our expertise
in sales and marketing of organic fruits and vegetables makes us a
perfect fit with GPDB. GPDB produces the premium product in
the organics category and Fresh Organics brings it to market via a
proven supply train. With today's growing emphasis on eliminating
food contamination, protecting against food allergies and
conserving our precious soil and water resources, we believe the
GPDB product line will be met with resounding success in the
marketplace."
The partnership with Fresh Organics enables GPDB to develop and
grow an immense variety of organic produce for its genius
delivery platform (Key word LIVING); but it also opens up a
sustainable program for distribution of a steady, year-round supply
of Living Produce™ and other organic varieties to the wholesale
buyers—in the U.S. and around the world—at affordable prices.
Fulfillment of this contract will commence upon completion of
the first phases of development for Living Produce Growing Center
in Utah and, subsequently, Jacksonville, Florida by the end of
2013.
Benefits of Living Produce
Superior Plant Nutrients: Living Produce™,
based on proprietary growing technology, delivers the full spectrum
of nutrients required for healthy, sustainable plant growth.
"Customers will be able to see and taste the difference," says
Smith. Consumers will also know the vitamin/mineral content
of each plant and their respective benefits in promoting a strong,
healthy immune system.
"In many cases," Smith explains, "the varieties we offer alive
when harvested locally and delivered, same or next day to
commercial customers. These plants we sell can remain alive for
7-10 days before they begin to deteriorate."
Year-Round Availability: Our Living Produce™
will be grown in "closed" indoor, climate-controlled growing
centers, enabling year-round production of popular favorite
varieties and other rare species that are sometimes very hard to
get.
Less Environmental Impact: Living
Produce™ grown with vertical technology requires about 88% less
land mass for production and up to 95% less water normally
required. But that's not all. With some varieties the
growing cycle is only 30-90 days; meaning that harvest yields can
be up to 12 times the normal yield of traditionally grown
plants.
Enhanced Food Safety: Smith also said: "Because
vertical growing of Living Produce™ can take place in closed system
of green house facilities we can maintain a clean growing and
handling environment, eliminating overspray from pesticides,
herbicides, cross-pollination of GMO's and harmful pathogens,
enhancing food safety."
Fresh Organics is known for exceptional quality
fruits and vegetables that are grown in compliance with national
and international standards for sustainable and fairly traded
agriculture. Supporting communities and farmers alike. Responsible
and ethical business practice and management making the least
impact on the environment.
