EAST MANATEE – The owners of C&D Fruit and Vegetable Co. Inc. and Trio Farms, LLC, who filed for Chapter 11 protection on Feb. 9, have decided to sell the company.
Privately held and family-owned, the Bradenton businesses, founded more than 35 years ago, grow, pack and ship fresh fruits and vegetables to wholesale customers throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Along with the O’Brien Family Farms retail market, 16505 State Road 64 E., the companies have been local favorites in the Bradenton area, offering strawberries in the winter and a mix of peppers, tomatoes, beans and squash in the fall and spring.
