We are an award winning, WBENC certified woman-owned date brand known for our fresh & delicious California grown dates, innovative design and packaging, outstanding product experience, creative and trend-setting recipe content and up close and personal relationship with customers and social media followers.  We are one of the most recognized packaged date brands in our industry and have developed a cult following among fans who proclaim our dates "the best dates ever."   

Our products have received 2 Sofi awards from the Specialty Food Association including the 2023 Sofi award for "Best New Product" in Dried Fruits in 2023.  These awards recognize the monumental shift in consumer perception of dates as merely another dried fruit in the fruitcake ingredient section of grocery stores, now elevated as a delicious superfood.  Rancho Meladuco has been pivotal in this shift in consumer perceptions with our gift worthy, beautifully packaged, signature fresh hand packed dates that launched in 2017.

We have a rapidly growing international fan following and have also received national recognition in numerous gift guides including the Wall Street Journal, Oprah, Martha Stewart, Bon Appetit, Forbes, Food & Wine, Sunset Magazine, and Real Simple magazines to name a few and are active members of the Specialty Food Association.  We have customers throughout the U.S. from date lovers to professional athletes, celebrity chefs, food magazines, and food, nutrition, health and wellness bloggers and influencers.  

Our signature kraft box packaging is 100% recyclable and zero waste, an important quality for many consumers today.  Our most recent product, "The Grinders" our imperfect dates are uniquely packaged in poly lined illustrated ice cream cups, consistent with our "anti plastic" packaging commitment and are an industry trend setting product for marketing the previously undesirable fruit (rejected for "puffy" skin) as un upcycled solution to the dates previously without retail demand.

Going on our 7th year in business we were chosen by Walmart in 2022 in their annual Open Call to be a nationwide, all store supplier with our Grinders, bringing California grown dates to all of America at an affordable price and keeping our growers and industry healthy by providing a consumer product that uses the surplus imperfect fruit.
