RSF Makes a Loan to Hudson Valley Harvest
Summary
RSF is pleased to announce a new PRI loan to Hudson Valley Harvest (HVH), a food hub providing timely and efficient distribution services that connect small and medium sized farmers in upstate New York with wholesale food buyers in New York City. In the spring of 2014, HVH moved into their own facility located across the parking lot from Farm to Table Co-packers to allow them to grow while staying close to a critical part of their supply chain. HVH handles all production, distribution, and sales, taking on much of the supply chain risk off of the farms so they can focus on growing and selling. They understand the challenges of a growing business as well as the importance of mission, and their commitment and experience has been nothing less than transformative.” Founded in 2011, Hudson Valley Harvest works with a network of independently owned and operated farms to make the best food available year round. In addition to distribution services, Hudson Valley Harvest also buys and processes surplus products and sells them under their own label with source identification.
