US (TX): Lipman opens premier packing facility in Dallas

Lipman, North America’s largest field tomato grower, recently opened a 150,000-square-foot packing and repacking centre in Dallas, consolidating the operation from three separate locations. Furthering Lipman’s commitment to geographic diversity, the facility will directly accommodate demand from customers in Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Mississippi and Arkansas.

“This location brings Lipman’s entire Dallas team together – from our drivers to our sales force and office personnel – allowing us to communicate and work more efficiently to fulfil customers’ needs,” said Brett Combs, General Manager overseeing Lipman’s Dallas facility.

Housing more than 140 employees, the fulfilment centre also includes several rooms designed for ripening bananas and avocados, cross-docking, storage, and offices for key personnel.

“The opening of this facility allows us to better accommodate our diverse range of customers and deliver the high-quality produce they’ve come to expect from Lipman,” added Combs.

Lipman’s strategically located farming, packing and distribution facilities allow the company to provide wholesale and retail customers with fresh produce year-round. All Lipman facilities are operated by a team of seasoned managers with decades of produce experience.
