The Jersey Tomato Expands into Walmart
ORLANDO, Fla. — The Jersey Tomato Co., maker of premium 100% New Jersey tomato sauces and salsas, today announced that its entire line of tomato sauces are now available at select Walmart Supercenters and Neighborhood Stores nationwide.

“We are thrilled to partner with the largest retailer in the world,” said Dave Stoff, Founder and CEO of The Jersey Tomato Co. “This demonstrates that people everywhere are looking for high quality, low sodium sauces that actually taste amazing. We use only premium quality New Jersey tomatoes grown by family farms in Swedesboro and Vineland, New Jersey that are certified ‘Jersey Fresh.’ New Jersey tomatoes rank #1 in quality and taste, and our sauces deliver that ‘taste of summer’ experience that our customers are looking for. Thank you Walmart for your partnership and we look forward to building a successful relationship over the years.”
Sauces from The Jersey Tomato Co. have 60% less sodium and are 25% lower in fat and calories than other leading tomato sauce brands. The naturally lower sodium is derived by the unique qualities of the New Jersey tomato, which are lower in sodium than other tomatoes.
