We handle almonds, shelled and in-shell, walnuts and table grapes. As almond packers, in order to ensure tractibility and reputble paper trail of all products, each bin is documented by grower, variety and size. We have built a strong and loyal grower base over the past 15 years. We have not had much grower turn-over as does happen so often in this competitive market. As far as the nutritional vaue of almonds: research studies have uncovered compelling evidence of nuts' health promoting effect. Most notably, nut consumption has been shown to lower total cholestrol and LDL cholestrol and has been associated with decreased risk of cardiovascular disease. Additionally, nuts are nutrient dense, contributing many "hard to get" nutrients, as well as a variety of phytochemicals, to the diet.
