MONTEREY, CA (October 7, 2009)—PRO*ACT has announced that Grasmick Produce, Boise, Idaho, and Segovia’s Distributing, El Paso, Texas, have joined its distribution network.

Grasmick Produce is a 54-year-old family-owned firm that was a PRO*ACT distributor from 2004 to 2008, and has now rejoined the group.
