Family Farmers Direct: the premier single source for local produce grown on America’s family farms

Today's consumers demand the best in fresh, locally grown produce. A research study* found that 93% of Pennsylvanians prefer to buy and use products that are grown, raised, or produced locally. Educated customers place both foodservice and retail suppliers in a unique position to expand the distribution, consumption, and profitability of fresh, locally grown produce.

This trend has created renewed competition among foodservice suppliers and retailers across the country. Accordingly, the most progressive buyers are aligning themselves with local distribution centers to achieve a competitive edge.
