Titan Farms Recognized as 2026 Ethical Charter Implementation Program (ECIP) Leadership Circle Member

Recognition highlights the company’s commitment to social responsibility and ongoing operational improvement

RIDGE SPRING, SC – Titan Farms, the East Coast’s largest peach grower and a vertically integrated operation committed to responsible agriculture, is proud to announce its inclusion as a member of The Ethical Charter Implementation Program (ECIP) 2026 Leadership Circle, alongside 36 other produce suppliers. The ECIP Leadership Circle recognizes companies that have earned all five stars in the online ECIP platform. Suppliers recognized on the Leadership Circle are credibly involved in ECIP LAB because they actively support their grower base, review workplace conditions and ensure continual development in their operations. This recognition reflects Titan Farms’ ongoing commitment to social responsibility, strong labor management practices and alignment with evolving retail customer requirements. 

ECIP is an industrywide initiative created to help the fresh produce and floral sectors align around responsible labor practices. Backed by the Walmart Foundation and powered by Equitable Food Initiative, the program brings retailers, suppliers and growers together to strengthen labor management systems and support transparency across the entire value chain. Through ECIP LAB, the digital platform, growers complete assessments, access actionable resources and benchmark their progress toward the Ethical Charter on Responsible Labor Practices. Ultimately, the program gives buyers a consistent, centralized way to understand how their supply chains are investing in people and where additional support can help move the industry forward.

“We are honored to be recognized by ECIP and to stand alongside growers and suppliers who are committed to advancing responsible labor across our industry,” said Ross Williams, President of Titan Farms. “At Titan Farms, our people are our greatest strength. This recognition affirms our long-standing commitment to ethical labor practices, safe working conditions and building a culture where every employee is valued and respected. As expectations continue to rise across the supply chain, ECIP provides a critical platform that brings retailers, suppliers and growers together around a shared standard for social responsibility. We welcome the opportunity to benchmark our progress, strengthen our systems and demonstrate our alignment with the Ethical Charter and we look forward to contributing to a more transparent and responsible industry.”

Titan Farms’ inclusion as a member of the ECIP 2026 Leadership Circle reflects progress demonstrated in areas including:

• Labor management practices centered on fairness, communication, and worker well-being
• Responsible agricultural systems aligned with retailer expectations and industry best practice
• Transparent social responsibility reporting that builds trust with customers and partners
• Investment in continuous improvement through training, operational enhancements and data-driven evaluation

ECIP is endorsed by leading retailers and suppliers who see the program as a practical path toward scalable, industry-aligned improvement in labor practices. Titan Farms’ participation supports a more consistent and collaborative approach to social responsibility—one that benefits workers, strengthens customer relationships and advances shared industry goals.

Titan Farms looks forward to building on this progress and continuing its commitment to a responsible, people-centered approach to agriculture.
