AVI Fresh is committed to enhancing the sustainability initiatives at Hunter College. By purchasing from local manufacturers, vendors and farms in the tri-state area, we ensure you will receive the freshest products possible. By buying locally, we can purchase and deliver products on an as-needed basis. This not only helps to sustain the local economy, but also greatly reduces waste. AVI Fresh is passionate about continually seeking sustainable solutions at each of our accounts. We look forward to joining Hunter College in their sustainability efforts. Below is just a portion of the local manufacturers, vendors and farms we have developed with within the tri-state area who will play a pivotal role in our sustainability efforts at Hunter College.
