Red Cliff Farms
Zamora
Red Cliff Farms is dedicated to delivering the most flavorful strawberries possible, but long-distance shipping has always posed challenges. Mold and spoilage can quickly diminish quality, leading to waste and dissatisfied customers. To combat this, Red Cliff Farms turned to StixFresh stickers, which create a protective microclimate around each berry, slowing decay and preserving freshness. The impact has been clear—less spoilage, longer-lasting strawberries, and greater efficiency. Customers have noticed the difference, enjoying consistently fresh fruit, while the farm benefits from reduced waste and improved quality. Partnering with StixFresh has helped Red Cliff Farms uphold its commitment to excellence.
While we can't disclose market share of our growers and distributors, we can quantify the environmental impact with large market analysis. 9.6 metric tons of strawberries are produced per year, and an estimated 64% of strawberries are wasted before being eaten. Ryp Labs can reduce total losses by 20%, saving 1,092 million kg of strawberries. Eliminating that waste results in 339,840 tons CO2eq, 53.29 tons Peq, and 46,410 tons oileq mitigated per year, and 40,513.2 cubic meters of water saved.
At Red Cliff Farms, we care deeply about delivering strawberries that are as fresh and delicious as the day they were picked. Shipping delicate fruit over long distances has always been a challenge, with mold and decay posing constant threats to quality and taste. That's why we started using StixFresh stickers in our packaging process, and the results have been amazing! These clever little stickers create a protective microclimate around each strawberry, slowing down spoilage and keeping mold at bay. Here's what we've noticed: Less Spoilage: Fewer strawberries are lost to mold and decay during shipping. Longer Freshness: Our strawberries stay fresh and tasty for longer. Better Value: Less waste means better efficiency and happier customers. Our customers have shared how much they appreciate receiving strawberries that are consistently fresh and flavorful. We're proud to team up with StixFresh.
