Fresh Summit Retail Tour: Bristol Farms, Yorba Linda, CA

ANAHEIM, CA—I’ve seen a lot of Bristol Farms stores in my day, and I’m never disappointed.

This one, however, went above and beyond my expectations.

The Yorba Linda store we visited on the Produce Marketing Association Fresh Summit Retail Tour is one of the retailer’s newest, having opened this spring.

Bristol Farms BB #:155996 operates 18 stores total, with 13 under the Bristol Farms banner and five under the Lazy Acres banner.

Bristol Farms is known for its high quality standards, and excellence in merchandising.

The company says this store’s top 5 selling items are berries, avocados, fresh-cut, grapes and apples, and about 70% of produce sales are organic.

My favorite thing at Bristol Farms, though? The Poke Bowl bar.
