Mr. Greens Produce was founded in 2003; In August 2011 it was purchased by Peter Politis with six employees and four vehicles in a rented 3000 sq. ft. facility in Allapattah. In 2012, the firm expanded to its own 14,000 sq. ft. facility near the produce market on NW 22nd Street. Mr. Greens Produce has been a big contributor of employment in Allapattah as its philosophy has been to hire local residents as well as military veterans. The staff grew during its first year under new ownership to 24 employees and 11 vehicles. In 2015, the firm moved into its own 65,000 sq. ft. facility on six acres in Liberty City. Mr. Greens has grown to over 180 employees, 52 refrigerated trucks and 16 refrigerated vans.
We began with a vision for a plant-based food that would have all the qualities we relish in the best artisan dairy cheeses. We believe the best part of eating is the togetherness of a shared meal, and we wanted to create products that everyone can enjoy, whether eating a dairy-free diet or just curious about a healthier lifestyle. We assembled a team that figured out how to use traditional cheese-making techniques but using nut milk instead of milk from an animal. Through this process, we were able to create a line of revolutionary products that you can feel good about eating. Once we unlocked the secret to making nut milks behaving like cow’s milk, the options were endless. Today, we offer a variety of delicious products including artisan delicacies, nut milk yogurts, and pastas.

Founded in late 2006 by Mary Schulman and her mother, Snikiddy® creates products for families actively looking for healthier foods that satisfy their snack cravings. The Snikiddy brand is a portfolio of better for you snacks that are simple, wholesome real products for families. So dig in, it’s all good. Where did the name come from? Snikiddy® is a shortened (and let’s face it, easier to say) form of the word persnickety, which means choosy or picky. Growing up, Janet (Mary’s mom) and her siblings were known around school as the Snikiddy kids (a badge they wore proudly) because they always ate healthy lunches. Their mom (Grandma), ahead of her time with her passion for good health, would pack their lunch boxes full of locally grown produce and very simple foods. A teacher once referred to them as being persnickety and the kids’ version of the word (snikiddy) stuck.
