Titan Farms announced a new partnership with Verdant™ Technologies to bring the post-harvest solution, HarvestHold Fresh®, to the peach industry. Titan Farms is a vertically integrated peach operation with more than 6,000 acres. Through rigorous testing, the company plans to use HarvestHold Fresh to extend the quality, freshness and flavor of its peaches from harvest to consumption.
“We are committed to innovation and providing high-quality products to our customers,” said Chalmers Carr, owner, president and CEO of Titan Farms. “I am thrilled to work with Verdant Technologies to bring this solution to Titan Farms. This partnership enables us to increase the shelf life and freshness of our peaches while reducing waste throughout the supply chain.”

Titan Farms worked closely with Verdant Technologies over the last two years, conducting large-scale trials to demonstrate the benefits of HarvestHold Fresh on peaches. Through its collaborative research, the company saw significant results in less fruit pressure drop in storage and transit between the control and treated groups, regardless of variety.
“We’re helping set the bar for freshness and simplicity,” said Gordon Robertson, CEO of Verdant Technologies. “This collaboration will have lasting effects on reducing shrink at retail and providing consumers with an improved peach-eating experience. We are proud to be part of this effort and look forward to seeing the positive impacts this partnership will have throughout the industry.”
HarvestHold Fresh is a postharvest solution delivered through a unique method. It provides benefits to the produce value chain by reducing waste, increasing grower and retail efficiency and helping ensure a fresher product for the end consumer.
Throughout Titan Farms’ operation, from the orchards to the pack house, it ensures its peaches are grown, harvested and packed in the best possible conditions.
