Eat Smart Sweet Kale Salad Kit

Eat Smart is a prominent brand specializing in fresh-cut vegetables and nutrient-dense salad kits. The brand gained significant popularity with its flagship Sweet Kale Salad Kit, which features a blend of seven superfoods including kale, broccoli, cabbage, and chicory, paired with poppyseed dressing, dried cranberries, and pumpkin seeds.

Originally founded in 1996 as Apio, Inc. in Guadalupe, California, the brand focused on innovative packaging technology to extend the shelf life of fresh produce. The brand was later owned by Landec Corporation (now known as Curation Foods). In late 2021, the Eat Smart brand and its associated fresh-cut operations were acquired by Taylor Farms, a major American vegetable processing company headquartered in Salinas, California.

The products are typically manufactured or processed in multiple locations across North America, including facilities in both the United States and Canada, to ensure fresh distribution to retail partners across the continent. Taylor Farms continues to operate the brand as a leader in the value-added produce category.
