Laura Flynn of Packed Produce is eager to expand her customer base through this new partnership with Artizone. Packed Produce is a twelve-person, all-female operation committed to providing customers with the freshest produce on the market. Their business is guided by the principles of food traceability, using local product when possible, reducing waste through recycling and composting and community partnerships through school programs and donations to local food depositories.
"Packed Produce shares a lot of Artizone's same values when it comes to business. We are very community-minded and we are able to provide the highest quality product at a great price point because of bulk buying and the freshness of the produce," Flynn says. "My team puts a lot of love and attention into every hand-cut and hand-packed delivery. Customers don't have to choose convenience over quality; you can have both," Flynn adds.
"Produce is a key component in a healthy balanced diet, and quality in this category is crucial. The partnership with Packed Produce serves our strategy of providing the best products to customers in the Chicagoland area, while supporting local businesses and individuals with vision," says Lior Lavy, COO of Artizone.
