Enjoy fresh, crisp veggies all year long!
Saladexpress is proud to introduce its new brand Florette® in grocery stores with the launch of three new, ready-to-eat side salads as well as delicious fettuccine-inspired veggie strips. You can find them in the produce section of IGA, Metro, Super C and Provigo grocery stores and at Walmart. Florette’s attractive and colourful packaging showcases the products’ freshness, simplicity and good taste. Florette ready-to-eat salads and vegetables offer a healthy and delicious way to spruce up your meals while reducing prep time.
“Our field studies have unanimously shown that consumers not only lack the time and energy to cook, but struggle to include fresh ingredients and think of new ways to incorporate vegetables into their diet,” explains Martine Leduc, Marketing Manager for the Florette brand. “Florette ready-to-use salads and vegetables offer valuable assistance with daily mealtime challenges, and in addition to helping you achieve a healthy, balanced diet, they taste great and are easy to use. You can now find Florette products, such as the new salads and veggie fettuccines, in grocery stores. All products from Saladexpress including the popular fresh, ready-to-cook mixed vegetables and mature spinach are becoming a part of the Florette brand.”
Maintaining a sustainable relationship with local producers is at the core of the brand’s mission. Florette products are part of a responsible and local agricultural approach and are proudly prepared in Québec in a newly modernized factory.
