BranchOut Food Inc., producer of dehydrated fruit and vegetable-based products, is taking the next step in its strategic collaboration with the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command to enhance Meals Ready-to-Eat (MRE) through its proprietary GentleDry technology.
Fact.MR projected the global fruit puree market would reach $24.11 billion in 2024, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 6.7% over the next decade.
The facility is capable of $40M in production capacity with the buildout to commence immediately and production expected to start in the third quarter.
While expanding production with a new line that sweetens and dehydrates different types of berries, Zarecki turned to Key Technology for a vibratory conveyor system with five Impulse shakers.
Given their innumerable medical benefits, especially for mental health, processed fruits and vegetables have now secured a prominent position in the global food and nutrition industry.
The facility located in Graveson, France, will include avocado storage, ripening rooms and packing capability to support Westfalia’s pan-European operations.
