Caramel Naturel Dates – 2014 Fresh Harvest Underway

Bakersfield, CA – Atlas Produce and Distribution, Inc., a shipper of 100% natural California ONLY grown dates is excited to announce that  “The 2014 date harvest is underway and the quality once again is looking excellent.” said Robert Dobrzanski, President of Atlas Produce. The California drought condition is a major concern for all of the agricultural community but the hot and dry conditions this summer have been perfect for Medjool dates. The California harvest this year started about two weeks earlier than normal due to the weather.  Dates are grown in many parts of the world and are gaining in popularity.  “The difference Carmel Naturel dates offer is that we only grow our dates in the sunny state of California.  Our consumers constantly tell us that California dates are their favorite.”  Our loyal Caramel Naturel date retail partners have noticed this as well and have told us that they prefer California grown dates over dates grown elsewhere.  “Caramel Naturel dates sales this year have exceeded our expectations and we attribute our success to our unwavering attention to quality.” 

Caramel Naturel dates proudly displays the California Grown symbol on all of our packaging to give consumers added confidence in the brand.
