Our Story

About Garden Fresh Foods.

Garden Fresh Foods was founded in 1987 with humble roots in Woodinville, Washington. From the very beginning, our focus on fresh product and exceptional customer service earned us a strong reputation throughout the greater Seattle area. As we grew, we aligned with pioneering start ups in the emerging fresh soup market, relationships that reflected our shared values and commitment to quality. Over time, those partnerships expanded to include national manufacturers, leading foodservice distributors, and grocery retailers across multiple market segments.

While cutting fresh vegetables is what we do, why we do it is what truly defines us. Our passion lies in providing solutions, helping manufacturers, foodservice operators, distributors, and retailers reduce labor, improve consistency, and deliver fresh, safe food with confidence. Anyone can cut produce; our mission is to set the industry standard in customer satisfaction, and that commitment guides every decision we make.

Our cut to order manufacturing process allows us to deliver the freshest possible product, seven days a week. Whether serving high volume restaurant chains, regional and national foodservice distributors, or retail grocery customers, we provide consistent, specification driven fresh cut solutions designed to perform in real world operations. Our success is built on high level customer care, nimble production capabilities from small to large scale, strict quality conformance, and a dedicated transportation team, all focused on exceeding expectations.
