Safety First
At Ole Tyme Produce, serving people is our priority; keeping your food safe and fresh is our business. Trust and excellence are at the core of who we are, and in upholding these values we guarantee an unwavering commitment to safety, security, and quality. Achieving SQF Level 2 certification upon moving into our new facility speaks volumes to our management's commitment to food safety and how deeply it is engrained in the culture of the company. Our inspections have earned excellence, scoring at the highest levels, each and every year, both announced and unannounced audits.
Our Community
Ole Tyme is in business to serve people - customers, employees, and our communities alike. Our duty to community is central to our core values and who we are. For us, community is both internal and external. We take care of our own, as an employer who leads with 'people first.' We regularly partner with area food banks and community organizations in an effort to provide fresh, locally sourced food to the food insecure throughout the great state of Missouri.
Our community contributions, whether food or non-food product, extend to charities supported by our customers, charitable events, as well as chefs’ organizations and competitions. Another integral piece of our communities is our area’s growers and farmers. In recognizing their value and essential work, we make an extra effort to aide these resources during difficult economic times and hardship.
