Berry producer Fruitist, formerly Agrovision, announced a name change and exceeding $400 million in annual sales, driven by its jumbo blueberries. Sales of these blueberries tripled in the past year. The company, backed by over $1 billion in investment, including from Ray Dalio's family office, aims for an IPO this year despite global economic uncertainty. Fruitist's vertically integrated supply chain and focus on consistent quality, termed 'fixing berry roulette,' has fueled its success. The company is expanding into cherries and plans increased marketing efforts.
