The Garden Fresh story starts a little over sixteen years ago when Jack Aronson ignited the fresh salsa revolution in the back of his modest barbeque restaurant located on Woodward Avenue in Ferndale, Michigan. He concocted a salsa recipe using only fresh, all-natural ingredients that had customers driving for miles just to try it. Shortly after, Jack and his wife, Annette, got out of the restaurant business and founded Garden Fresh Salsa, along with current partner, Co-CEO and General Counsel John J. Latella’s father Tony.
Garden Fresh has garnered more than 450 major national and international awards for its products, and is the single largest producer of fresh salsa in North America. With total revenue exceeding $100,000,000, and supporting over 430 employees and their families, Garden Fresh’s line of salsas, hummus, dips and tortilla chips is augmented by a robust private label business. The Garden Fresh portfolio of brands has distribution throughout the United States and Canada, as well as Puerto Rico and Europe.
