The Fresh Pack season is getting closer, and there is a lot happening behind the scenes before the first tomatoes arrive.
One thing you might see and hear around the cannery this time of year is water can testing. Teams across Production run cans filled with water through the lines as they test equipment throughout the facility. The process allows teams to check, inspect, and recheck many different areas to make sure everything is operating properly and ready for the season ahead. Then the cans are recycled and the water reclaimed, so nothing goes to waste.
Behind every test run are knowledgeable team members checking, adjusting, troubleshooting, and working together to prepare for the Fresh Pack season. Their efforts are critical to help ensure the cannery is ready when the first tomatoes arrive.
