According to a press release, Revol Greens will double its romaine lettuce production throughout the remainder of 2022 and into 2023.
The "notable" increase in production is supported by Revol Greens' innovative indoor growing facilities in Minnesota, California, and Georgia, as well as a new 20-acre facility in Temple, Texas. Revol offers over seven romaine productions in both head lettuce and baby leaf options.
Revol Green's increase in romaine lettuce production is largely due to its new 20-acre advanced greenhouse in Temple, Texas that will produce upwards of 17 million pounds of greens annually upon phase 2 completion.
"A key aspect of our mission at Revol Greens is offering a diverse product assortment that caters to the needs of a complex produce supply chain," says Tom Thompson, Chief Revenue Officer at Revol Greens. "Developing programs anchored in organic growing practices, sustainability, and locally grown will always be core to what we do. Building on that foundation, Revol Greens also offers grocers and food service operators an alternative to field grown romaine and breadth and scale to customers as they seek a greenhouse-protected alternative."
