GUADALUPE, CA—November 15, 2010 — The holiday season is upon us and Apio, Inc. has dressed up a few of its most popular trays for the occasion. Starting today, Eat Smart® is featuring a festive holiday-themed label applied to all U.S. shipments of Eat Smart 40-ounce Classic Vegetable Trays and Eat Smart 36-ounce Veggie Blend Trays. Each tray includes fresh vegetables and Apio’s always-popular ranch dip. The specially labeled holiday trays will be available at our East and West Coast facilities through the end of December—perfect timing for Thanksgiving through New Year’s, and every holiday and special occasion in between!
