Where Excellence Meets Innovation

A Sweet Partnership

Deriving its name from the sandy soils in which North Carolina and Georgia sweet potatoes are grown, Sand Candy was born of the synergy between two leaders in the produce industry, each renowned in their own right. Bland Farms®, the world’s largest grower, packer, and producer of Vidalia Sweet Onions®, and Battleboro Produce, a name synonymous with decades of cultivating sweet potatoes come together to offer you the best of both worlds – the freshest, highest-quality sweet potatoes and unparalleled retail expertise. We have the supply to keep up with the ever-growing sweet potato demand, so you have the peace of mind knowing you can count on Sand Candy Sweet Potatoes 365 days a year.
