Mucci Farms, a leading grower and marketer of fresh produce, announced its acquisition of Greenhill Produce, a state-of-the-art, nearly 150-acre greenhouse facility in Kent Bridge, Ontario.
As part of the newly established Cox Farms company, Mucci Farms continues to push the boundaries of sustainable agriculture, surpassing over 650 acres of greenhouses in Canada and the United States, helping to make Cox Farms the largest owner of greenhouse acreage in North America.
Following the recent acquisition of Hacienda Farms, a 160-acre facility in Coatsworth, Ontario, the Greenhill Produce acquisition reinforces the company's objective of being the leading supplier of sustainably grown fresh fruits and vegetables in North America.
Founded in 2000 as a 6-acre greenhouse, Greenhill Produce has grown into a premier greenhouse grower. With best-in-class farming practices and cutting-edge robotics and automation, the first-generation family farm sets a high standard for quality and innovation.
The continued expansion of capabilities and scale boost Mucci's presence and ability to service retail, wholesale, and food service companies across the continent.
Mucci Farms continues to produce a variety of crops including tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, strawberries, and lettuce. The company will continue cultivating bell peppers at the Greenhill facility while remaining agile to adapt to market trends and explore diversification opportunities. With this acquisition, Cox Farms and Mucci Farms are poised for continued growth and innovation, solidifying its role as an industry leader.
