TEMPLE, Penn.- October 8, 2018 -  Giorgio Fresh proudly celebrates its 90th anniversary and unveils its new packaging at this year's PMA Fresh Summit in Orlando, Fla.

As part of its commitment to leading the category in innovation and insights, the company looked inward starting with a packaging refresh, as it is the first interaction the consumer has with the brand. Consumers are looking for clean, simple labels in bold colors that stand out on the shelf. "Less is more" truly is the name of the game when it comes to Giorgio's new packaging as they improve the shopping experience for consumers: the sleek, bright new labels are color coded by subcategory and invite consumers to visit their website for hundreds of recipes at the click of a mouse.

Giorgio will celebrate their new packaging and anniversary milestone at this year's Fresh Summit with a brand-new booth featuring an open footprint which allows the company to showcase its "Wall of Innovation," cooking station and the now well-known Giorgio coffee stand.

"Giorgio has a beautiful and rich history that started in 1928 when Pietro Giorgi built his first mushroom house in Temple, Pennsylvania and started our long-standing tradition of growing high-quality," said Greg Sagan, executive vice president of sales and marketing. "As we head into the tenth decade of service to our customers, we are proud to offer the same quality in packaging that speaks more to today's consumer."

Stop by booth #2872 for a first-hand preview of the new packaging and stay to celebrate the 90th anniversary over a cup of coffee at our new booth!
