Duda Fresh Farms has been growing fresh produce since 1909, when our founder, Andrew Duda, moved to the United States in search of the American dream. Back then, Andrew had a vision to provide people with farm fresh products at an affordable price, which tasted as if they were grown in their very own garden.
Duda’s business and employment philosophy are based in core values and beliefs passed down through the Duda family’s four generations of leadership. Accomplishment, communication, team work and the celebration of achievements are all stressed as part of a healthy working environment.
We believe that in order to realize our objectives at Duda, we need the support, ideas and dedication of talented employees. Our success depends on it!
