For more than 50 years, the economic well being of National Grape Cooperative members has been the reason for the existence of Welch's, the world's leading marketer of Concord and Niagara based grape products. Composed of over 1,282 grape growers located in Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Washington, and Ontario, Canada, National Grape is the sole owner of Welch's. The two organizations operate under a two-board system; we at National Grape focus on delivering grapes of outstanding quality, while it is Welch's role to convert our grapes into food products that satisfy the needs and tastes of consumers, both in America and abroad.
Because of the investment of our grower/owners - in stringent quality growing and harvesting standards, viticultural research, and aggressively funding new product development, manufacturing and marketing programs of Welch's - the Cooperative has enjoyed a long history of industry leadership and growth. But National Grape
is more than just an organization of grape growers. It's a way of life
with strong family ties, a proud heritage, and a commitment to quality
and goodness you can taste in every product bearing the Welch's name. |
