Lassonde manufactures ready-to-drink juices, cranberry sauces, fondue broths, pasta sauces, and cider beverages—the second-largest U.S. producer of store-brand shelf-stable fruit juices. The stack reveals a manufacturing-heavy operation: Allen-Bradley PLCs, Factory Talk View SCADA, AS/400, SAP, and Infor running production and supply-chain logistics. Active adoption of WMS, TMS, and ERP upgrades, combined with hiring focused on manufacturing (12 roles), logistics (10), and engineering (7), signals modernization of production systems and distribution networks.
