Who We Are

A family farm that grew into a full-service produce house.

From our fields in Lodge, South Carolina, Willis Produce Sales has grown into a grower-packer-shipper serving retailers, wholesalers and distributors across the Southeast and beyond. We still walk the fields every morning — and we still answer our own phones.

  • Grower, packinghouse & cold storage — one accountable partner from seed to shipping dock.
  • Harvesting daily in season — picked, cooled and rolling within hours, not days.
  • Repack & retail-ready services — bins, cartons, stickering and store-brand programs.
  • Trusted grower network — when our fields rest, our partners keep your program supplied.
