for Raw Fruit and Vegetable Processors
Home | About
ExtendAg meets the unique needs of speciality crop processors. It was built specifically for food processors who rely on growers to source their supply chain product. These crops flow from the field to your plant for processing where they become nutritious packaged food that feeds our population. Our solution is a fully integrated suite of ERP-agnostic modules that deliver complete visibility to your entire raw product supply chain. This lets you maximize operational efficiencies, reduce risks and improve decision making.
ExtendAg, founded in 1978, started out as an entrepreneurial business that worked directly with Pacific Northwest tomato processors to offer supply chain management software solutions to connect produce growers, haulers, and processors. The business evolved and was acquired by John Deere in 1995. However, to refocus attention on its core manufacturing businesses, John Deere decided to divest the software division in 2011. ExtendAg was acquired by Volaris Group as part of the Cultura Technologies Agri-food portfolio.
ExtendAg has seen consistent growth and now includes some of the largest food companies across the globe, including Campbells, Dole, DelMonte, Conagra, Seneca, Basic American Foods, LambWeston, Kraft Heinz, Pacific Coast Producers, and more.
