During our Q3 of 2025, we will learn more about a local business in our area known as Lassonde Pappas! Here in Hendersonville, this plant was first owned by Seneca Foods in the 70s to help them press and process apples. Eventually, the plant was purchased by Clement Pappas, a New Jersey-based national fruit juice supplier. It was in 2011 that Lassonde Industries, a Canada-based beverage manufacturer, purchased Clement Pappas to make what you see now as Lassonde Pappas and Co. Today, the Hendersonville plant is the largest Lassonde plant in the US and deals with over 250 recipes. We produce juice for our own brands, like Apple & Eve and Old Orchard; but also, for other national brands like those of Walmart, Sam's Club, Costco, Target, Publix, Aldis, and Trader Joes, just to name a few. We continue to grow in Hendersonville with the opening of 3 new lines in the last 2 years and in that time, millions of dollars in investment.
At Lassonde, our mission is "To craft quality food and drinks that consumers love, customers value and employees are proud of, and that demonstrate care for the planet." Hendersonville is helping to achieve our mission.
