Costa Fruit & Produce is launching online ordering for next day pickup at its Boston facility for fresh fruit, vegetables and specialty foods.
The company says it is committed to the well-being of communities across Boston. In response to the recent challenges related to Covid -19 the company is looking for ways to continue to bring fresh foods to the community.
“We hope that by providing an alternative to shopping at a traditional market, we will make it easier for communities to maintain social distancing and still obtain delicious fresh foods,” said Manny Costa, CEO, president, Costa Fruit & Produce.
Costa has been serving New England Chefs and dining establishments for more than 70 years.
Consumers can now visit costafarmersmarket.com/ for a chef’s selection of fresh foods. In addition to fresh fruit and vegetables, shoppers can select from a wide variety of artisan cheese, local meats and specialty ingredients. Pre-selected fresh vegetable and fruit boxes are also available for a one click shopping cart solution.
Orders can be placed Monday through Thursday for pick-up from noon-4 p.m. at 18 Bunker Hill Industrial Park, Boston.
Costa is also donating fresh Nutra-Snack kits for local hospital workers in the Boston area.
The Nutra-Snack kits are produced at Costa’s onsite, SQF certified processing facility, Fresh Ideas, and then sent to area hospitals to help keep their staff nourished during these unprecedented times. The contents are washed, sealed and ready to eat for workers on the go.
“Healthcare workers are putting themselves at risk every day fighting the Covid-19 virus. In appreciation of their heroic selfless effort we are happy to help where we can,” said Manny Costa, CEO
The Nutra-Snack kit contains fresh fruit, juice and yogurt. Costa is also providing their drivers with Nutri-Snack kits for a healthful snack option as they service essential workers throughout New England.
