Galdisa works with U.S. shellers and growers throughout the peanut cycle to ensure a responsible and high-quality supply of peanuts all year long. Our geographic location enables us to constantly source from both, the Southwest and Southeast growing regions, with very similar logistics impact and opening us to a wide range of specifications for raw material.
