20/20 Global signs $10 million potato & onion contract

20/20 Global, Inc., a Nevada corporation which provides services for the wholesale fresh produce industry, announced that it has signed potato and onion contracts with one of the largest food service companies in North America. The potato contract is for 12 months totalling 780,000 cases or approximately 39,000,000 pounds of Idaho potatoes and the onion contract is for 8 months totalling 260,000 cases or approximately 11,200,000 pounds of yellow and red onions.

Mark Williams, Global's Chief Operating Officer said, “The contracts are subject to market pricing but similar contracts last year were worth approximately $10 million and we expect these contracts to be somewhat similar.”

Idaho potatoes are well known as the gold standard for potatoes. Idaho potatoes have the "Grown In Idaho" seal, which features a silhouette of the state of Idaho and the registered certification mark, "Idaho Potatoes." Idaho and Eastern Oregon are the largest onion growing regions in the country. Global's growing partners use cutting edge technology that includes drip irrigation, in-house forced air drying, automated packing lines and palletization and advanced sizing and grading equipment. All loads are federal and state inspected and graded to meet strict specifications.
