Sustainability
At Produce Alliance, sustainability is a core value. That’s why we proudly partner with growers and distributors who prioritize sustainable practices in their operations every day.
Our Commitment to Sustainability & Community
Growing with Purpose
From sustainable farming and greener logistics to meaningful philanthropy, Produce Alliance is dedicated to making a positive impact—from farm to community.
Less Harm on the Farm
We take our role in sustainability seriously—partnering with suppliers who use practices like crop rotation, pest management, water reduction, and recycling.
From Green to Greener
We continually explore greener delivery methods and expand our organic and fair-trade offerings—because environmental leadership is core to our long-term success.
Giving Back to Move Forward
Community giving is part of who we are. We proudly support causes like Alzheimer’s research, cancer foundations, autism awareness, children’s hospitals, and more.
Fresh Truck
The Produce Alliance Fresh Truck initiative helps you expand your orders beyond produce by adding items like protein, seafood, and disposables. By consolidating more products onto fewer trucks, you can improve efficiency, lower costs, and support your sustainability goals.
- Increase your efficiencies with fewer orders and fewer deliveries
- Cut your carbon footprint and improve sustainability
- Another option for your protein deliveries
