Red Sun Farms showed retail partners and new customers its fresh innovations in both the tomato and cucumber categories at this year's International Fresh Produce Association (IFPA) Global Produce & Floral Show.
"IFPA was a tremendous success for our team," said Carlos Visconti, CEO, Red Sun Farms. "We believe this success reflects our ability to deliver a consistent, year-round supply and our ongoing commitment to bring innovation to retail partners."
The company's highlights include:
Empress™ Purple Tomato
This new tomato variety has a rich, deep purple color — a natural indicator of its elevated antioxidant content and nutrient-dense profile. With a balanced, robust tomato flavor and vibrant presentation, Empress delivers both nutrition and visual appeal. This bioengineered variety incorporates genetics from the edible snapdragon flower, enhancing its health benefits, nutrient richness, and taste.

The Chef's Collection Mini Cucumbers feature a light green mini cucumber alongside the traditional dark green variety. Often mistaken for a peeled cucumber, the light green cucumber's pale skin protects its crisp texture and sweet flavor.
"Now more than ever, our team is committed to being the grower of choice for our retail customers," said Harold Paivarinta, senior director of sales and business development. "Our focus remains on quality, flavor, customer service, and innovation as we build a stronger future together."
