Giant Food has launched Local Produce Boxes, featuring locally sourced, in-season produce online through its Giant Delivers service. The boxes, which retail for $20, will be available throughout the summer without a subscription or commitment. Each box will feature six or more unique items from over 20 local farms such as Fifer Orchards and Vincent Farms of Delaware, Miller Farms, Houser Produce Farm, Calloway Bros, and Shlagel Farms of Maryland, and Kirby Farms of Virginia.
"At Giant, we know our customers appreciate fresh and seasonal produce when they are in-store or ordering online just as much as we do," said Gregg Dorazio, director of ecommerce at Giant Food, in a statement. "We look forward to bringing these specially curated Local Produce Boxes featuring summer's tastiest produce to our customers."
The launch of Giant's Local Produce Boxes is one of the many ways the retailer says it is furthering its commitment to increase food traceability and transparency and make healthy, locally sourced foods accessible for customers.
