Perhaps the US business least susceptible to an outbreak of scurvy among its employees, Sunkist Growers is an agricultural cooperative owned by California and Arizona citrus growers who farm some 300,000 acres of citrus trees. Sunkist offers traditional and organic fresh oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruit, and tangerines worldwide. The co-op also makes juice and cut fruit packaged in jars. Fruit that doesn't meet fresh market standards is turned into oils and peels for use in food products made by other manufactures. The cooperative operates some 20 packing facilities. Sunkist's customers include food retailers and manufacturers and foodservice providers across the globe.
