about us

Here is Our Story and This is Our Team

RGR Produce Sales Inc. opened in 1997 with a vision of being a supplier of premium locally grown produce, working closely with their growers to ensure the supply of the highest quality product.

Using our on-site high-capacity vacuum cooler, we can rapidly cool freshly harvested vegetables and extend their shelf life. With these quality systems in place and by providing excellent customer service, RGR quickly became known for providing the highest quality produce to its loyal and valued customers.

Today, RGR Produce continues to meet its customers’ needs by providing premium quality locally grown produce, freshly packed and vacuum cooled. RGR serves customers throughout British Columbia and Western Canada, ranging in size from large grocery retailers to family-owned farm markets.

RGR has expanded its services to meet the full cycle needs of the farmers by supplying packaging, seeds, vegetable and berry plants and more.
