Dole Foods has opened a new state-of-the-art frozen fruit facility in McDonough, Georgia, Dole's third frozen fruit facility in the United States, complimenting the existing operations in Atwater, California, and Decatur, Michigan. The new facility is approximately 60,000 square feet, fully automated and will have four manufacturing lines which when at capacity can produce 60 million pounds of frozen fruit annually. The operations will package frozen fruit for Dole's retail, food service and private label customers on the east coast.

Dole Fresh Vegetables has enhanced its popular line of Dole FreshTakes Bowl Salads with three on-trend new flavors and proprietary new packaging that allows salad lovers to mix their Dole fresh lettuces, toppings and dressings in the same bowl without spilling.

Dole has appointed Dr Lara Ramdin, as Chief Innovation Officer, further strengthening the company’s innovation capabilities in support of The Dole Promise which seeks to increase access to nutritious food across the world.

Dole has introduced the first Keto-Certified frozen fruit blend, the Dole Keto Berry Blend, and a line of three new Dole Boosted Blends. Each is designed to help support your nutrition goals and can be used to make a delicious and convenient, ready-to-blend smoothie.
