Crain’s Detroit Business has an article on the maker of Margaritaville’s new salsa, tortilla, and dip product line: "Salsa sales hot: Garden Fresh cooks up big deal with Margaritaville"
It’s party time at Garden Fresh Gourmet Inc. On Dec. 21, Garden Fresh signed a manufacturing and production deal to produce a full line of salsa, hummus, tortillas and dips for singer and songwriter Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville Foods.
Already, Garden Fresh is distributing Margaritaville salsa nationwide to Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Costco Wholesale Corp.’s Los Angeles division. It’s planning to begin distribution in April to Kroger Co. and is close to an agreement with Meijer Inc.
Margaritaville Foods was established about four years ago as the consumer and packaged goods division of Orlando, Fla.-based Margaritaville Enterprises L.L.C.
