It wouldn’t be Gilroy without ConAgra/Gilroy Foods!

Imagine our town without the tantalizing scent of onion and garlic permeating our senses-especially during summer. How could we ever host such successful Garlic Festivals without the recognizable scent of our stinkin’ rose? Thank our friends and neighbors working at ConAgra Foods, Gilroy Foods for this heady contribution.

This environmentally friendly company prides itself on quality and accountability. They maintain complete control over the product as their scientists create and develop the seed. Crops are then grown throughout their farms on the West Coast and when harvested, they are brought to their plants (Gilroy being the largest), producing the freshest and safest products available.

ConAgra is a top producer of garlic and the number one producer of onions, worldwide, but the public cannot purchase any foods or spices bearing the ConAgra/Gilroy Foods name. Product leaving the Gilroy plant is labeled with “Gilroy Foods”, but from there it becomes part of a leading branded foods company and the trusted name behind recognizable brands, including: Healthy Choice, Chef Boyardee, Egg Beaters, Hunt’s, Orville Redenbacher’s, PAM, and Banquet, among others. Their brands are found in 96% of U.S. households and 26 are ranked first or second in their category. They also offer restaurants, foodservice providers, and other businesses a large variety of commercial products.
