WP Rawl, a full-service grower, processor and shipper specializing in year-round bulk and value-added leafy greens and vegetables, will celebrate their 90th year as a family-operated business in early 2015.
The company plans to commemorate the anniversary by hosting a reception for the fresh produce industry at Southeast Produce Council’s Southern Exposure in February. The company’s booth will feature High School Musical alum Monique Coleman, who has partnered with Nature’s Greens to help promote simple ways of incorporating greens into everyday life. Additional features of the celebration campaign include video content, a commemorative e-book, and a trade advertising campaign. WP Rawl will also host an event for employees in 2015.
“We are so excited to celebrate this milestone with everyone who has helped us along the way. When my grandfather, Walter Rawl, first started the business he was told that he would never make enough profit to pay off the land,” remarked Ashley Rawl, vice president of sales, marketing & product development for WP Rawl. “Today not only is business thriving, we have established WP Rawl as the category leader in leafy greens and built great relationships with our employees and customers.”
