Westmoreland sales group selects IFCO RPCs

Westmoreland Sales Group, a leading Canadian greenhouse vegetable grower, has signed a two-year contract with IFCO SYSTEMS, the leading global provider of reusable packaging solutions for fresh products. Westmoreland is now shipping Topline brand tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers from its distribution centers in Ontario and Michigan to retailers across North America in IFCO RPCs.

“We are working with IFCO to ensure our Topline products arrive to our retail customers in the best possible condition while lowering costs through the supply chain. The IFCO RPC solution also supports Westmoreland’s commitment to the environment by helping to reduce the number of cardboard boxes used.” said Brian W. Blommaert, Chief Executive Officer of Westmoreland Sales Group.

IFCO handles all RPC logistics for Westmoreland, from distribution to cleaning to re-entry into the supply chain. After each retail use, IFCO RPCs are folded, collected and shipped back to one of IFCO’s service facilities, where they are sanitized and prepared for re-use.

Westmoreland Sales Group is a greenhouse vegetable grower based in Leamington, Ontario with offices in Michigan and New Jersey. The company markets tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and specialty vegetables.
