Anaheim, Calif. – To better accommodate business needs and growth, PEAKfresh® USA has recently purchased and moved into new office space located in Lake Forest, Calif. The move, official March 1, will relocate the sales, shipping and customer service operations of the Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) film brands company.
“Lake Forest offers a great, central location in Orange County for our employees and a newer building that we own rather than the older office space we had been leasing,” said Greg Ganzerla, president of PEAKfresh® USA. “The relocation is a positive change for the business and employees alike.”
The new offices will house the sales, customer service and shipping departments of PEAKfresh®, currently used by more than $300 million of produce shipped worldwide. Additionally, Lake Forest, Calif. has been ranked among the safest cities in the United States.
PEAKfresh® is highly effective for protecting a variety of produce and flowers prone to early ripening, including berries, grapes, asparagus, cut flowers, broccoli, tomatoes, stone fruits and mixed loads of fresh vegetables. Based on proprietary mineral technology embedded in their film, PEAKfresh’s products – carton or box liners, bulk bin liners, sheeting, pallet covers and retail packs – naturally remove ethylene gas given off by packaged produce that causes and promotes decay. In addition to removing ethylene, the PEAKfresh® technology also supplies an anti-fog treatment to reduce moisture levels and draws condensation onto the film, inhibiting mold and bacteria growth and preserving the appearance of flowers. PEAKfresh’s sustainable business approach is a win-win for all involved parties – produce and flower suppliers, retailers and consumers.
PEAKfresh® currently has seven commercial products including: Carton or Box Liners for long-distance shipping; Bulk Bin Liners; Pallet Covers; Iceless Broccoli Packaging (also works great for green onions, carrots and radishes); Duo Bags for Fresh Herbs; Flower Sheets; Bags; and Retail Packs. All PEAKfresh® products are recyclable and certified by OMRI code:pfp-2278 based on the requirements of the USDA National Organic Program Rule (7 CFR Part 205).
