Vegetables are the true stars of Asian flavor, bringing color, crunch, and bold personality to every dish. Take bok choy—it’s crisp, peppery, and the perfect partner for sizzling stir-fries and comforting soups. Napa cabbage? It’s a must-have for making kimchi, the tangy, spicy staple that adds a punch to any menu. Daikon radish is the ultimate multitasker: pickle it, grate it, or simmer it in soups for a subtle kick. For a sweet snap, snow peas and sugar snap peas always deliver, while shiso leaves and daikon sprouts bring a fragrant flair to Japanese plates.

From day one, Troy Clayton was built to hustle. As a self-described “military brat,” he zigzagged across the globe—Florida, California, Italy, the UK, and everywhere in between—picking up not just life lessons, but the grit, adaptability, and drive that would become the backbone of his culinary career. Today, that same ambition has landed him at Keany Produce as Executive Chef and the force behind our cutting-edge precut department, Keany Kuts.

Troy’s journey to Keany is anything but ordinary. By 17, he had already set off on his own path, working his way up from dishwasher to line cook in San Ramon, California, all while finishing high school. His talent and determination quickly caught the eye of mentors like Chef Mark Stanley, and from there, things moved fast. From California to Italy, Troy sharpened his skills in European kitchens—earning a spot in a prestigious Paris culinary program (despite not speaking a word of French!) and eventually cooking for the culinary elite in the UK, including legends like Marco Pierre White and Gordon Ramsay.

His resume reads like a chef’s bucket list: running renowned restaurants across Europe, working under the legendary Jean Louis Palladin, and earning accolades at the Hyatt Regency Reston with his own kitchen. In the mid-90s, he helped launch a revolutionary home-meal replacement concept, Steak Around, before returning to his passion—owning and operating the beloved Geranio Restaurant in Old Town Alexandria for two decades.

But Troy isn’t just a chef—he’s a visionary. With Restaurant Consultants, Inc., he’s helped bring countless concepts to life, guiding restaurant teams from idea to execution with a unique mix of creativity and know-how. From developing The Landing restaurants to helping solve complex operational challenges, Troy’s impact on the foodservice industry runs deep.

Now, at Keany Produce, Troy leads Keany Kuts—a nearly 24/7, chef-powered operation producing the region’s most expansive line of fresh-cut fruits and vegetables. With over 100 skilled artisans on his team (some with decades of experience), Troy is elevating the way foodservice operators approach prep. “If you can do it in your kitchen, I can do it in my kitchen with the stress, worry, and waste off of you. Just order by 6 PM and my kitchen cuts it, and delivers it at your backdoor the next morning.”

Troy’s respect for his team is clear. “I need to be a coach” he says, “there’s no way in my lifetime that I will be as skilled at peeling a melon as my team with 20-30 years of experience at Keany. They’re phenomenally skilled at what they do.”

As someone who’s been a Keany customer for 30 years, Troy knows firsthand the value of quality and consistency. Now he’s helping shape the future of it. With labor costs rising and kitchen staffing becoming more unpredictable, Keany Kuts is the solution operators can count on. By utilizing Keany’s precut, operators can save on labor and still achieve the same quality, if not better. “Workers aren’t always guaranteed to turn up on time every day, but Keany will always be here,” says Chef. Troy envisions expansion—a second facility in Richmond—and a future where creativity meets convenience like never before.

The kitchen may be hectic, but with Chef Troy Clayton at the helm, Keany Kuts is just getting started.

At Keany Produce, food safety and quality aren’t just priorities—they’re part of our DNA! Our fresh-cut produce is backed by a rock-solid Food Safety and Quality Plan that’s packed with smart systems, sharp science, and serious standards.

B&W Quality Growers follows the sun—literally. By operating farms across eight states, they ensure their signature greens like watercress, arugula, and spinach are always grown in season, at their freshest and most flavorful. This strategic approach not only delivers peak quality year-round but also gives each farm time to naturally recharge through seasonal rotation.

B&W Quality Growers is redefining what it means to farm responsibly. Thanks to their cutting-edge Smart Farming techniques, they’ve slashed chemical use by over 50% in the past decade. Their advanced water recirculation systems not only conserve millions of gallons annually but also help replenish the water table—100% of the water used on their Florida farms is reused. Sustainability doesn’t stop in the fields: nearly all of B&W’s packaging is recyclable, and both their retail and foodservice bags are made from Oriented Polypropylene (OPP), a recyclable material marked with the #5 chasing arrow code. By using lightweight OPP film instead of PET tubs, they’ve cut packaging material by 80%, dramatically reducing their carbon footprint. Even their wash water is eco-friendly—treated with peroxyacetic acid, which safely breaks down into carbon dioxide and water. It’s all part of B&W’s mission to grow smarter, greener, and better every day.

Ham Produce

Founded in 1975, Ham Farms is a family-owned and operated business headquartered in Snow Hill, NC. After graduating from East Carolina University and completing an off-farm auditing position with Texas Pipeline Gas, Bobby Ham returned home to the family farm. At that time, Woody and Allen Ham were farming approximately 200 acres of primarily row crops. In the early 80s, Bobby had high aspirations and decided it was time to diversify. Beginning with sweet potatoes, the Hams ventured into vegetable production. As the family and the crops grew, so did the company. Before long, the Ham’s Yams sweet potato brand spread nationally and internationally.

It is recognized as one of the highest-quality packer-shippers in the sweet potato business, both in the U.S. and Europe.

Happy Dirt (East Carolina Organics)

Founded in 2004 as Eastern Carolina Organics, now Happy Dirt, the company began when local organic produce was scarce. Today, it partners with about 14 farmers to distribute wholesale organic produce along the East Coast. With 98% of its products grown organically, most are Certified Organic. While primarily sourcing from North Carolina, Happy Dirt is expanding into South Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia, extending growing seasons and yielding southern staples like kale, collard greens, sweet potatoes, okra, root vegetables, and squash.

The curing process is a vital step that enhances the flavor and shelf life of sweet potatoes. After harvesting, sweet potatoes undergo curing, a process that involves storing them in a warm, humid environment for about 7 to 14 days. This process converts the starches in sweet potatoes to sugars, resulting in a sweeter taste and more appealing texture.

Curing also helps heal any minor cuts or bruises, preventing rot and extending the storage life of sweet potatoes. Once curing is complete, sweet potatoes should be stored in a cool, dark place with good ventilation to maintain their quality.

At Keany Produce, we go the extra mile to bring you the freshest, most flavorful sweet potatoes! Our sweet potatoes are carefully cured to lock in their natural sweetness and perfect texture, ensuring every bite is as delicious as it should be. Whether you’re whipping up a mouthwatering dish or simply craving their rich, earthy flavor, you can trust that our sweet potatoes meet the highest standards of quality.

Though often used interchangeably, sweet potatoes and yams are quite different! Sweet potatoes have smooth, thin skin and flesh that range from creamy white to vibrant orange or even deep purple. They are naturally sweet, with a soft, moist texture when cooked.

Yams, on the other hand, are a starchy, dry tuber native to Africa and Asia, featuring rough, bark-like skin and white, purple, or reddish flesh. Unlike sweet potatoes, yams are less sweet and have a much drier, firmer texture, often requiring longer cooking times. While sweet potatoes are widely used in casseroles, fries, and pies, true yams are more commonly found in international markets and traditional African and Caribbean cuisine.

With so many types of potatoes to choose from, each with its own unique flavor and texture, the possibilities in your kitchen are endless!

When it comes to potatoes, knowing the difference between grading standards and sizing standards is key. Grading standards focus on quality—think appearance, shape, and texture—while sizing standards are all about, well, size! And believe it or not, size makes a big difference when it comes to cooking.

Smaller spuds, like “new” potatoes or “fingerlings,” have a delicate texture and a natural sweetness. They’re perfect for quick-cooking methods like boiling, steaming, or roasting whole, ensuring they stay tender and evenly cooked.

On the flip side, bigger potatoes, like russets or baking potatoes, are starch powerhouses with a fluffy, mealy texture. These larger beauties are ideal for hearty dishes like baked potatoes, creamy mashed potatoes, or crispy french fries. With potatoes, size isn’t just a detail—it’s a recipe game-changer!

Choosing the appropriate size potato for your dishes is essential for achieving the desired results. For example, smaller potatoes are ideal for creamy mashed potatoes, while larger potatoes are perfect for stuffed baked potatoes, providing ample space for your fillings and a satisfying portion size.

Winter is when citrus truly shines!

And as a bonus, they’re packed with vitamin C to give your immune system a boost just when you need it most. It’s the ultimate seasonal win—delicious and good for you!

What are citrus fruits?

Citrus fruits originate from Southeast Asia. During the fifth and fourth centuries BC, the citron fruit began to spread west through Persia, near Jerusalem. It later made its way to the western Mediterranean in the third and second centuries BC. The earliest lemon botanical remains were found in Rome, dating back to the late first century BC, according to Datna Langutt. Other citrus varieties like limes, pummelos, and mandarins slowly made their way to the Mediterranean up through the early 19^th centuries. This became known as “The Citrus Route.”

Keany offers many different types of citruses throughout the year when available!

Avocados can show some color changes throughout the season. Early on, they’re usually a lighter, in-between green, and later they turn a darker shade. The early season green turns a bright green while ripening and has a slightly longer shelf life, while the late season dark green stays dark while ripening and has a slightly shorter shelf life. But no matter the time of year, they always have that signature creamy texture and delicious flavor we all love.

1. Hard: Fresh off the tree, this avocado is firm with zero give – perfect for juggling but not quite for eating! It’s still about 5+ days away from being ready, so keep it at room temp and let the countdown begin.

Copper sulfate residue: Copper sulfate is commonly used in agriculture to control fungal diseases, but excessive use can leave residue on the fruit. Rest assured, it’s completely safe and harmless, with no impact on the texture, flavor, or quality of the avocado’s interior.

Hallow pit: Every now and then, you might cut into an avocado and notice something’s missing—the seed! Don’t worry, the avocado will still be just as creamy and buttery. What’s happened is the seed has dried out and turned brown, leaving a hollow spot where it used to be. There’s no problem with the rest of the fruit—it’ll ripen and taste just like any other avocado.

Ridging: Ridging refers to the presence of raised lines or ridges on the fruit’s skin. The skin is damaged at an early stage slightly stunting the young fruit; therefore it is more commonly seen in small size fruit. No worries here, ridging does not cause any damage to the inside of the fruit.

Lime Rub Scars: These brown or black spots on an avocado’s skin are just surface imperfections. They don’t affect the quality of the fruit inside. The severity of the scarring helps determine the avocado’s grade for packing.

Lenticel Spotting: Lenticels are small brown spots, usually 1-5mm, that appear on the skin of an avocado, typically after harvest and more often during the rainy season. Over time, these spots can grow and turn into larger black areas, known as spotting. Don’t worry though—lenticel spotting doesn’t affect the fruit inside. As the avocado ripens and the skin darkens, these spots tend to fade away.

Thrips Scarring: If you notice brown scars with a leathery or cabby look, they might be caused by avocado thrips—tiny flying insects that feed on immature fruit. While they don’t affect the quality inside, these visible scars can lead to downgrading or culling of the fruit.

Volcanic Ash: Avocados from southern Jalisco, near the active Colima Volcano, may have a bit of residual ash on their skin. Rest assured, it’s completely harmless and safe to eat as it is expected to ripen and taste normal.

Sunburn: Sunburn on an avocado can show up as pale yellow or darker spots, ranging from black and brown to red or withered areas. While it usually doesn’t affect the inside quality, larger sunburn spots can cause the tissue to dry out, leading to the fruit being downgraded or culled.

At the Keany warehouse, bananas are carefully stored in controlled temperature environments to maintain their ideal ripeness. These temperature-controlled settings are crucial because bananas are sensitive to temperature fluctuations, which can significantly impact their ripening process and the colors of bananas.

By keeping the banana storage temperature within a specific range, between 56°F and 60°F, the ripening process is slowed down, ensuring that the bananas remain firm and fresh for a longer period. This allows the bananas to be shipped and arrive to our customers in optimal condition, ready to ripen fully on the store shelves or in a restaurant. The precise control of temperature in the warehouse is a key factor in delivering consistently high-quality bananas to our customers.

Bananas are not only tasty but also packed with essential nutrients beneficial for overall health. Incorporating bananas into a diet can provide numerous nutritional benefits and contribute to a well-balanced eating plan.

Firstly, bananas are a rich source of several essential vitamins and minerals. They are particularly high in potassium, which is crucial for maintaining healthy blood pressure levels and proper heart function. Additionally, bananas contain vitamin C, which supports a strong immune system, and vitamin B6, which aids in brain development and function.

Furthermore, bananas offer several health benefits. They are an excellent source of dietary fiber, which helps promote healthy digestion and prevent constipation. The natural sugars in bananas provide a quick energy boost, making them an ideal snack for athletes or anyone needing an energy pick-me-up during the day.

The squash family is divided into two main categories – summer squash and fall squash. While they may seem similar, there are remarkable differences between the two. Let’s delve into the magic of these squashes.

True to its name, summer squash is abundant during the warmer seasons. It encompasses varieties like zucchini, yellow squash, and pattypan squash. These squashes have a tender skin, soft flesh, and mild flavor. Ideal for grilling, sautéing, or even eating raw in salads.

On the other hand, fall squash is harvested later in the year. Varieties such as butternut squash, acorn squash, and spaghetti squash fall into this category. They have a hard outer skin and dense, sweet flesh, making them ideal for roasting, baking, or creating warm soups and stews. Fall squashes can be stored for extended periods, making them a staple in autumn and winter recipes.

Understanding the difference between summer squash types and fall squash types can inspire you to create a range of dishes, from light and refreshing summer salads to hearty autumn meals. Explore our selection of fresh, locally grown summer and fall squashes to add a touch of magic to your squash dishes!

Summer squash comes in a myriad of shapes and sizes. Let’s take a closer look at four popular summer squash types: zucchini, patty pan squash, crookneck squash, and Goldbar Squash.

Zucchini, the most recognized type of summer squash, is typically long and cylindrical, with a dark green skin.
