Walmart honors BrightFarms salads with innovation award

BrightFarms was recently awarded the Innovation Award (Produce) at Walmart’s 2019 Supplier Growth Forum in Rogers, Arkansas. BrightFarms is a leading supplier of locally grown salads for supermarkets.

The Innovation Award follows a successful launch of BrightFarms salads in Walmart stores in Ohio.

BrightFarms produce reaches Walmart stores within 24 hours of harvest. Its products are grown indoors and without the use of pesticides.

The award comes amid Walmart’s plan to expand BrightFarms’ products into an additional 50 stores in the Columbus area this spring. Consumers in that region can expect to see BrightFarms packaged salads on the shelves by the end of May. In addition, BrightFarms products are coming to stores in the Cincinnati and Dayton areas.

“Everyone at BrightFarms was thrilled to win Walmart’s Innovation Award,” said Paul Lightfoot, BrightFarms CEO. “We are enjoying working with Walmart in their successful efforts to grow their grocery sales. I’m grateful that consumers in the Columbus metro area will soon have access to our delicious baby greens.”
