Millennium Pacific Greenhouses is proud to spotlight its growing portfolio of California Grown snacking tomatoes, a core category that continues to accelerate in consumer demand across the West Coast.

With multiple high-flavor varieties grown in both loose and on-the-vine formats, Millennium Pacific’s snacking tomato program delivers the consistent quality, vibrant flavor and year-round reliability that retailers expect from a premium, vertically integrated greenhouse supplier, according to a news release.

With USA production anchored at the company’s high-tech greenhouse in Tehachapi, Calif., Millennium Pacific says it provides a stable and dependable surety of supply, especially during the winter months. These locally grown snacking tomatoes are nurtured in controlled-environment conditions designed to protect flavor, maintain freshness and meet consumer expectations for convenient, crisp, high-quality produce that is grown close to home.

Retail response has been strong across the board.

“Consumers continue to gravitate toward snacking tomatoes for their convenience, flavor and versatility, and retailers have taken notice,” says Brandon Gruenberger, vice president of sales. “Our California Grown program has delivered exactly what the market wants: consistent quality, reliable winter supply and a flavor profile that stands out on the shelf.”

Millennium Pacific says its long-term commitment to West Coast supply strength is reinforced by major strategic investments this year. The company’s acquisition of a 62-acre, high-tech greenhouse facility in California earlier this fall significantly expands its U.S. footprint, while the ongoing expansion of its Delta, B.C., facilities — scheduled for completion next summer — further enhances year-round capacity across key commodities.

“As a family-owned business, growth and expansion aren’t just milestones, they’re essential to meeting the rising demand of our retail partners every single week of the year,” says Reza Bahktiyari, senior vice president. “Our investment in California and British Columbia reflects our commitment to delivering premium quality, increasing supply resilience and ensuring that exciting things continue to come from Millennium Pacific.”

As a proud participant in the California Grown program, Millennium Pacific says it remains dedicated to supporting local agriculture, sustainable practices and regional food systems, bringing consumers trusted, high-flavor snacking tomatoes grown right in their backyard.

Looking ahead, the company is preparing for a dynamic 2026. With expanded acreage, increased capacity and innovations underway, Millennium Pacific is accelerating both its brand and research and development efforts across varieties, commodities and refreshed consumer-focused packaging.

Millennium Pacific Greenhouses says it continues to shape the future of fresh with premium West-Coast–grown produce, year-round consistency and a growing lineup of products designed to meet the evolving needs of retailers and consumers.
