Over 30 years of
EXPERIENCE
Fresh Concepts began in Chicago where two brothers, Ed and David Liesenfelt, set out to improve relationships throughout the produce supply chain, and negotiate directly for end users with their best interests in mind. Fresh Concepts has grown tremendously since our inception in 1987, but our principles and purpose have remained the same, to offer our clients the most comprehensive and actively managed produce program in the industry.
