Kalettes, the first new vegetable to be introduced in over
a decade, continues to experience phenomenal consumer response and
overwhelming positive feedback from media critics. TIME Magazine
recently called Kalettes "the vegetable you must try." This
incredibly versatile item continues to see tremendous momentum in
the food service industry as well, showing up on menus across the
county.
"We have seen demand grow exponentially for Kalettes this
year and are very pleased with this growth," said Kraig Kuykendall,
sales manager for Tozer Seeds America. "We are elated that Kalettes
will be featured at PMA Fresh Summit so that attendees can
experience this new vegetable for
themselves."
Kalettes are the product of over a decade of research by
the largest family-owned vegetable breeding company in
England, Tozer Seeds.
The kale and Brussels sprouts hybrid offers the best traits
of each of its parent vegetables. Kalettes are not genetically
modified and were developed by cross-pollinating Brussels sprouts
with kale through traditional methods.
Tozer Seeds has exclusive agreements with select companies
to grow and market Kalettes to create a consistent name and brand
identity, allowing consumers to easily recognize the product.
Current Kalettes cooperators include 4Earth Farms and Ocean Mist
Farms. As part of the agreement, Kalettes seeds are also sold
by Johnny's Selected Seeds to small farmers and home
growers.
Kalettes are available to both retailers and
foodservice distributors directly through its collaborators.
