Giorgio expands into citrus with Colombian limes

BLANDON, Pa. – July 20, 2026. Giorgio BB #:197339, a trusted leader in fresh produce for nearly a century, is expanding its portfolio with the launch of Vita Sana Sol, a premium brand of Persian limes grown on family-owned farms in Colombia.

Known for its vertically integrated approach to mushroom production, Giorgio is bringing the same commitment to quality, consistency and transparency to its newest venture. Every Vita Sana Sol lime is grown, harvested and packed under oversight throughout the growing process, the company said, ensuring premium fruit from the grove to the retailer.

Vita Sana Sol’s limes are grown in Colombia’s fertile growing regions, where favorable climate conditions meet generations of farming expertise. The company says the result is fruit that is vibrant, juicy and full of bright, fresh citrus flavor.

“At first, people may be surprised to see Giorgio entering the citrus category, but for us, it was a natural evolution,” said Bryan Shelton, vice president of sales and marketing at Giorgio. “Success in fresh produce comes from understanding how to grow exceptional products with consistency and care. Whether it’s mushrooms or limes, our focus remains the same – partnering with experienced growers, maintaining quality throughout the process and delivering fresh products our customers can trust.”

Vita Sana Sol offers a range of packaging options designed to meet the needs of retailers and consumers alike, including individual retail packs, bagged programs and larger formats for merchandising flexibility.
