Mucci Farms acquires 150-acre Greenhill Produce

Mucci Farms has acquired Greenhill Produce, a state-of-the-art, nearly 150-acre greenhouse facility in Kent Bridge, Ontario. As part of the newly established Cox Farms company, Mucci Farms continues to push the boundaries of sustainable agriculture, surpassing more than 650 acres of greenhouses in Canada and the United States, helping to make Cox Farms the largest owner of greenhouse acreage in North America. 

Following the recent acquisition of Hacienda Farms, a 160-acre facility in Coatsworth, Ontario, the Greenhill Produce acquisition reinforces the company's objective of being the leading supplier of sustainably grown fresh fruits and vegetables in North America. 

"We've had the privilege of working closely with Greenhill for many years, so we know firsthand the exceptional quality of both their facilities and their crops," said Bert Mucci, CEO of Mucci Farms. "Bringing Greenhill into the Mucci family enhances our supply chain to offer more reliable supply for our partners." 

Founded in 2000 as a six-acre greenhouse, Greenhill Produce has grown into a premier greenhouse grower. With best-in-class farming practices and cutting-edge robotics and automation, the first-generation family farm sets a high standard for quality and innovation.
