The Packer: “Sonora grape deal is rebounding after slow start, distributor says” (6/5/2023)

After a delayed start to the Mexican table grape season, producers are bouncing back with normal production moving into June.

What’s more, grower-owned distribution company Divine Flavor, Nogales, Ariz., reports that production is currently coming from the northern and costal districts of Sonora, an area that was delayed due to cooler spring weather.

Divine Flavor, a Nogales, AZ-based produce grower and distributor, announced the restructuring of its executive sales team, elevating Patrick Cortes to vice president of sales and Carlos Bon to senior vice president of sales.
