National Grape Cooperative Association, Inc.
Well, of course grape growers want to hang out in a bunch! The more than 1,200 grower/owners who belong to the National Grape Cooperative Association harvest purple, red, and white grapes from almost 50,000 acres of vineyards in order to supply its wholly owned subsidiary Welch Foods. Welch's makes and sells juices, jams, and jellies under the Welch's and Bama brands. Other co-op products include fresh eating grapes, which are distributed by C.H. Robinson Worldwide, as well as dried fruit and frozen juice bars. National Grape Cooperative growers maintain vineyards in Pennsylvania, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Washington, and in Ontario, Canada. In 2009 the co-op sold more than 40,000 tons of grapes.
