The organic-foods industry is no longer going gangbusters, as it did before the U.S. economy collapsed five years ago.

But despite the slowdown, Albert's Organics Inc., a national distributor of produce and other perishables based in Logan Township, still outgrew its distribution center there in the last couple of years.

The organic and natural-foods market is "still growing in the strong single to double digits. People are continuing to want to eat healthier," Albert's president Scott Dennis said Wednesday at a ribbon-cutting for a 70,000-square-foot distribution center and headquarters at the Gloucester County site.

The $10 million distribution center in the LogistiCenter at Logan is twice as big as the old one nearby, which Albert's had occupied for about 15 years, and has room to expand by 25,000 square feet.
