What Retailers Can Do

As consumers become more aware about that they’re eating, where it comes from and how it is produced, many are looking for safer, healthier foods produced through more sustainable growing practices. Through education and promotion, they are becoming more familiar with safe and healthy growing initiatives like TruEarth Certified brands. This certification is a true market differentiator in a world of mass-produced, genetically-modified food.

As a retailer, you can help your customers understand the differences in sustainable farming practices. Stocking TruEarth Certified products tells your customers that you are offering them GMO-free, bee-friendly, farm worker-friendly produce. These are products using no pesticides that are highly toxic to bees before or during bloom, when bees are most active collecting nectar and pollen. TruEarth Certified produce also tells the consumer that they can depend on the same high growing standards in the produce wherever they find the TruEarth Certified symbol.

You can take advantage of the growing consumer focus on healthy, safe and bee-friendly grown food in expanding your business and the produce you make available for your customers. Promoting the TruEarth certified products in your store will tell your customers that you are aware of the benefits of earth-friendly, safe and sustainable food production.
