PHILADELPHIA -- As the pioneer in leading post-harvest technologies for the world's highest production value produce, AgroFresh Solutions, Inc., is excited to announce a refreshed promise to the produce industry – to empower the business of fresh at every step, helping customers produce abundant, sustainable, quality fresh produce for all. This mission follows AgroFresh's expansion of solutions, now including the industry's leading SO2 intelligent packaging technology for table grapes, berries and flowers. AgroFresh's refreshed look will be unveiled for the first time at Fruit Logistica in Berlin, February 7-9.

"As the global post-harvest leader, everything we do at AgroFresh supports this promise," says 

Clint Lewis, Chief Executive Officer of AgroFresh. "We look at fresh produce challenges customers may encounter from every angle and deliver answers in a comprehensive and innovative portfolio of near- and post-harvest solutions that help customers overcome quality and ripening challenges faced at every stage of the value chain."
