Western Fresh Marketing was formed in 1994 in order to represent
growers of fancy imported and domestic fruits. Over the years we
have added more palate-pleasing delicacies and we market these
bountiful harvests to discriminating, upscale retailers and
wholesalers throughout the United States and Canada.
To meet the demands of the more educated palate and burgeoning cosmopolitan markets, we have expanded to handle CCOF (Organic) and Third-Party Tested (Nutri-Clean) produce. We also offer, custom packaging for retail, club stores, wholesalers and food service customers.
We have worked hard to earn the reputation of Purveyor of Freshness and our priorities are to stay on the leading edge of market trends and to fulfill the needs and desires of our retail and wholesale customers. Special requests are always welcomed and we constantly are in search of the new and different fresh produce item.
Figs - Western Fresh Marketing represents many of California's fig growers, from the northern-most to the southern-most, as well as many growers from the San Joaquin Valley. These growers produce, and we market, Black Mission, Calimyrna, Brown Turkey and Kadota figs, under a number of labels. The diverse locations of these ranches allows us to say, "We have figs when no one else does."
Kiwi - From our extensive network of growers around the world, Western Fresh Marketing is able to provide this very nutritious fruit every day of the year. Most Kiwifruit comes from California, Chile and Italy, but from wherever they come, our Kiwifruit is guaranteed to arrive at the peak of perfection and at competitive prices.

Asian Pears -The fruit calls attention to itself with its plump globular shape and a spectrum of ochre russet to smooth yellow hues; round like an apple with the skin of a pear. The flavor is outstanding, suggestive of brown sugar and butterscotch. Asian pears are firm when ripe and can be stored for months after picking. They are juicy and flavorful and often make good dessert pears.
Pomegranate Fruit - The pomegranate is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and was cultivated and naturalized over the whole Mediterranean region since ancient times.

has a citrus flavor and is very juicy. There are many drinks and
even foods that are made with the pomegranate fruit.

Now, persimmons are grown in California where hundreds of different varieties flourish. This brightly colored, glossy orange red
skinned fruit is an excellent source of vitamin A, a good source
of vitamin C, and rich in fiber.
Sugar Plums - The Sugar Plum needs no introduction. Its appearance is that of a gigantic purple grape. It is one of the few plums with a non-bitter skin.
Its golden flesh is followed by nature’s second honey that comes
rushing forward to greet your taste buds with every bite. It has
been said "the rays of the sun have been captured and stored
beneath the flesh" of this singular fruit to only be set free when
tasted.
Garbanzo Beans - Garbanzo beans (also known as Chick Peas) have a delicious nutlike taste and buttery texture. They provide
a good source of protein that can be enjoyed year-round and are available either dried or canned.
Oso Sweet Onions - Oso Sweet Onions that are light golden-brown in color, with a shiny tissue-thin skin and firm, tight, dry necks. When cut into, Oso Sweet onions will have a creamy white interior, and a mild aroma.
