The Mountain View team was founded by Randy and Ruth Ataide, Bill and Becky Janzen, and Mike and Peggy Thurlow in 1994. Having known each other for many years but never working directly together, the principals determined that there was the need for a different type of produce company to enter the marketplace. Each of the principals believed that in the modern agri-business world, the small and medium sized Growers and Packers were being dominated by corporate concerns, and that the family farm way of life were in jeopardy. The Ataide, Janzen and Thurlow families wanted to try to do something about this situation.Joining with like-minded local farmers of nectarines, peaches, plums and apricots, Mountain View broke ground on a state-of-the-art cold storage and distribution facility located in the very heart of their Growers fields. Surrounded by orchards and vineyards, this facility was intended to demonstrate the commitment of the founders to the family farms they served, and to prevent their fruit from being hauled long distances after picking for sorting, packing, storage and shipping.

Based in one of the world's great culinary centers, Reily Foods Company has been offering consumers high-quality products and service for more than 100 years.Prior to the turn of the 20th century, William B. Reily operated a wholesale grocery business in Monroe, Louisiana. With his expertise in roasting and the strong demand for his coffees, Mr. Reily moved to New Orleans in 1902 to found a company to roast, grind, package and distribute canned coffee. It was the birth of the Luzianne brand. In 1906, Mr. Reily was joined by Jacob Aron, a green coffee importer and family friend. With 85% of all imported coffee beans passing through New Orleans, they assured themselves of having the first choice of the finest beans available. As the companys reputation for quality grew, tea was added to the product line. In 1919, the company was reincorporated as Wm. B. Reily & Company, Inc. By 1932, Mr. Reily had established the Luzianne brand throughout most of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and parts of Florida, the Carolinas and Virginia and with his son, William B. Reily, Jr. had started Standard Coffee Company, which delivered coffee products directly to consumers homes. From 1932 to 1968, Reily Foods Company continued to prosper and grow, guided by William B. Reily, Jr., and his brother, James W. Reily. During this period, a larger updated production facility was built in New Orleans and roasting plants were built and purchased in Baltimore, Maryland. In 1965, the JFG Coffee Company of Knoxville, Tennessee was acquired. As a dominant regional roaster and marketer of ground coffee, tea, mayonnaise and peanut butter, JFGs successful diversification provided the model that encouraged the Reily Foods Company to diversity beyond coffee and tea.
