A Century of Getting Celery Right
Still led by the same family, Duda Farm Fresh Foods continues to raise the bar on celery taste and quality. From new value-added offerings to groundbreaking research and development, Duda drives celery innovation to better serve our retail and foodservice partners.
Decades of proprietary variety development shaped celery that's sweeter, crisper, and more consistent, season after season.
That same drive to improve shows up in how we work: waterjet cutting technology, value-added snacking formats, ongoing packaging improvements.
It's all part of the same standard, and it's now the foundation for Let's Grow, helping our retail, foodservice, and distribution partners grow category sales through the standard that built our name.
With family farming roots that go back nearly a century—and a team of celery breeders with a combined 180+ years of experience—it's not hard to see why the Duda brand was nicknamed the "Celery King." We're committed to living up to that legacy with the crop that started it all.
Innovation is central to our identity, combining our family farming roots with advanced scientific research. Our state-of-the-art flavor and nutrition laboratory uses analytical technology to study celery's flavor and develop sweeter, crispier varieties. Through continuous testing and refinement, we strive to provide customers with the highest-quality, best-tasting celery available.
Whether it be:
Pioneering our ground breaking water jet cutting techniques
Perfecting celery straws after 15 years of plant research
Cultivating the sweetest celery around
Duda is at the forefront of celery innovation and leadership.
