Our tomatoes are grown in the state of Florida in nutrient rich sandy soil. The ever-present Florida sunshine allows for an extensive growing season. Only Mother Nature can produce the natural full flavor of Florida farm grown tomatoes.
West Coast Tomato produces about 5 million boxes of tomatoes annually. About 25 percent consist of Roma tomatoes. The remaining 75 percent are of beefsteak variety. Because of our technologically advanced packing house, we are able to provide our clients with produce that meets their exact size specifications.
