Our Facility

Coastal Sunbelt Produce is centrally located in the Mid-Atlantic and is able to serve customers in 6 states and the District of Columbia.  Our 165,000 square foot facility is equipped with fully refrigerated loading docks to ensure that the cold chain is maintained from the moment we receive the product until the moment it is delivered to you.  All product received by Coastal goes through a rigorous inspection process which includes visual inspection, monitoring of temperature, and yes - random taste tests.

Our entire facility is equipped with the latest technology, including temperature/humidity controlled coolers regulated to the individual product needs.  To ensure that our diverse selection of fruits and vegetables arrive to you in optimum condition, we operate five such controlled coolers and three ripening areas.  We also developed a tomato repack operation which sorts tomatoes by color and ripeness and helps us deliver product that meets our customers exacting specifications.  Our warehouse personnel are trained to maintain and document efficient rotation of inventory to insure proper freshness.

When you think food safety, think Coastal Sunbelt Produce.  We work along side the U.S. Government to insure we deliver safe, fresh and wholesome product to our customers.  Coastal Sunbelt Produce is HACCP CERTIFIED (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) and we are one of a handful of companies in the nation to be QTV Certified (Qualified Through Verification) by the United States Department of Agriculture.  In addition, we were awarded SQF 2000 (Safe Quality Food) Level 3 status in 2010, another certification of which very few produce companies have in the country.

Our commitment to quality does not stop at our facility; we operate and maintain over 185  trucks, giving us an edge over our competitors.  Our certified trained technicians service our fully refrigerated trucks on the premises and keep our fleet moving.  Coastal Sunbelt operates with one of the highest on-time delivery rates in the industry - in spite of operating in one of the worst traffic pattern zones in the country.

We take pride in the professionalism of our drivers. Our drivers care about our/their customers and strive to anticipate their every need.  They carefully unload, inspect and deliver with pride your produce to your cooler, storage or pantry.  We stand behind our products and seek to make sure you are thoroughly satisfied.  If something is not right, we will make it right.  Coastal offers same day credits and returns on any questionable items.

At the end of the day, we understand the quality of the products we deliver is a direct reflection on you, our customer.  We are committed to provide you with the products that are exceptional in eye appeal, taste and texture; products you will be proud to serve to your customers.  That is why we will continue to invest in our facilities, our vehicles, our people and our systems.  We have your back!
