HORIZON MARKETING, INC.

Horizon Marketing, Inc. specializes in the procurement, packaging, and distribution of perishable fresh and frozen agricultural commodities for U.S. government food assistance programs. Their core capabilities center on the end-to-end management of high-volume, temperature-sensitive food supply chains, including the sourcing, sorting, grading, and certified packaging of fresh fruits, vegetables, and processed potato products under strict USDA food safety and quality standards. Technical expertise includes cold chain logistics, compliant labeling for federal donations, and adherence to FSIS and FDA produce safety protocols. Key differentiators lie in their precision handling of delicate produce—such as fresh apples, peaches, nectarines, and russet potatoes—and their ability to consistently deliver bulk, multi-item orders with precise packaging specifications, ensuring nutritional integrity and shelf-life compliance for vulnerable populations. The company maintains a sustained, primary relationship with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, delivering commodities under the USDA’s Food Distribution Program. Their work supports domestic and international food aid initiatives, consistently fulfilling requirements for fresh and frozen produce destined for schools, food banks, and humanitarian relief efforts. The nature of their contracts indicates deep familiarity with USDA’s commodity procurement cycles, quality assurance frameworks, and distribution logistics for perishable goods. Horizon Marketing’s industry focus is firmly rooted in perishable prepared food manufacturing (NAICS 311991) and frozen fruit, juice, and vegetable manufacturing (NAICS 311411). In practice, this means they operate as a specialized supplier of minimally processed, ready-to-distribute produce items, bridging farm-level sourcing with federal distribution networks. Their market positioning is that of a trusted, compliant conduit for fresh agricultural commodities within the federal nutrition assistance ecosystem. As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business headquartered in Visalia, California, Horizon Marketing leverages its small business structure and federal certifications to compete effectively in government procurement markets. Their geographic location provides strategic access to major agricultural production regions in California’s Central Valley, enhancing supply chain responsiveness and quality control.
