Morris
Brown & Sons Company Limited was founded
in August of 1957 by Mr. Morris Brown,
Harold Brown and Sonny Goldfarb.
Since then we have expanded from
dealing exclusively with tomatoes to a
company that buys and sells a wide
variety of fresh fruit from Canada, U.S.
and abroad.
We are located inside the "Ontario Food Terminal" (OFT) which serves over 10 million people per year. Produce sold in the Terminal has remained steady at 868,000 tons per month. There are more than 294,735 buyers registered with the OFT Board. Buyers come from all over Ontario, they travel from as far west as Sarnia, east to Kingston, south to Fort Erie and as far north as Timmins. Over one million vehicles a year pass through the Terminal front gates. Trucks bring in produce from every growing region across North America, as well as all seaports. The Ontario Food Terminal is basically a central marketplace for Ontario growers and produce wholesalers.
We are members of the
TWPA (Toronto
Wholesalers Produce Association),
OPMA
(Ontario Produce Marketing Association),
CPMA (Canadian Produce Marketing
Association) which is responsible for
over 90% of the fresh produce sold in
Canada and are also listed in the Red
and Blue Books. Our Agriculture Canada
License number is 0271, which can be
found in the Blue Book. Also in the Red
Book we have been awarded the BCA
(Business Character Award) this logo and
plaque is awarded annually without
charge to members that establish and
maintain a reputation of high ethical
trading practices, business competence
and financial stability.
Currently, Morris Brown & Sons Company
Limited is owned and operated by Lorie Goldfarb,
Anthony Badali (Vice
Presidents) and Angelo Nicastro
(Operations Manager). Morris Brown & Sons
prides itself in produce quality and
personalized customer service.
