Summary: If you own a grocery store, a restaurant, or simply a large family, combining Aleva Groceries (pantry) with Aleva Produce (fresh produce) offers value, turnover, and authenticity. The proximity to the Atlanta State Farmers Market (operating 24/7 for logistics) helps with availability and freshness .

-
Aleva Produce bills itself as "the largest distributor of Hispanic fresh produce in the Southeast," operating since 2008 and with lists/catalogs available; they are now expanding their coverage (Carolinas).
