Why use natural green coffee extract, you ask, and what is it? Green coffee extract is an unroasted coffee bean, and according to Livestrong.com, some of the benefits besides natural ener- gy are potential weight loss, reduction of high blood pressure, improved mood and cognitive performance and the benefits that are provided from antioxidants. This innovative line of naturally pure, Fresh From Florida, refrigerated juice is still crafted by Noble Artisans that contin- ue to cold-pressed and process using LEP™ (Low Energy Preservation), so that the juice is healthy and fresh tasting. They then blend in all natural green coffee extract to give that extra oomph to the day. Because Noble continues to strive for a low carbon footprint and sustainability, its juice bottles are still produced at the facil- Seminole Pride Noble (Cont'd. from p. 1) ity and it grows and/or works with local Florida farmers to source the ingredients.

What are your plans this year and beyond? AM: What Formaggio is trying to do in the produce department is what we've successfully done in the deli department, which is walk the stores, find the voids and see what we can make as new and innovative products in a way to keep the category alive and fresh for customers. PSD: Do you have a formula for this or a special approach of some kind? AM: My mission and my company's mission is to find products that sell well, then attempt to add what I call the 'Formaggio Twist' to make them better. An example of that is the Just Add Lettuce product line. Another example is one of the lines we're introducing at this year's PMA show – Creative Crumbles. Another example is the way we've made lunches better – fresher and healthier, and convenient and ready-to-go with another line we're unveiling at PMA called Fresh Formaggio (Cont'd. from p. 1) & Healthy Lunches-2-Go. PSD: The produce department is gener- ally known as the section where you would buy fresh fruits, vegetables and other produce. How do these Lunches-2- Go fit in? AM: In this case, the Formaggio Twist is put into play by offering this absolutely fresh item by including the very ingredi- ents a customer would normally see around them in the produce department. These are the sources of freshness that the customer expects from the produce depart- ment packaged in an incredibly convenient two-compartment tray including fresh pro- duce and either a gluten free cracker thin or one featuring a healthy grain aspect. PSD: You seem to have a clear direction where you'd like to see your company in the produce department. AM: The produce department is growing every day, and Formaggio wants to be part of that growth.
