Celebrating Brazilian Independence Day!

This week, we proudly recognize Brazilian Independence Day and celebrate the people, culture, and traditions of Brazil-a country that holds a very special place in the A.V. Thomas Produce family.

Our connection to Brazil is personal. Our owners were married in Brazil, and their children were born there, creating a bond with the country that has remained an important part of their family's story.

We're also grateful for the hardworking members of our team and community who share Brazilian heritage and bring their dedication, culture, and spirit to A.V. Thomas Produce every day.

To our Brazilian employees, friends, families, and partners, we hope you had a wonderful Independence Day.

Feliz Dia da Independência do Brasil!
