BELVIDERE, NJ, Sept. 22, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Edible Garden AG Incorporated, a leader in controlled environment agriculture (CEA), organic and sustainable produce, and developer of the Zero-Waste Inspired® mission and Farm-to-Formula® platform, today announced that it has been awarded fresh-cut herb business through an additional Walmart distribution center serving the Upper Midwest. This award builds upon the Company’s recently announced expansion with Walmart in the Mid-Atlantic region and extends Edible Garden’s growing retail presence into the Upper Midwest.
The additional distribution center will be serviced by Edible Garden Heartland in Grand Rapids, Michigan, further diversifying the facility’s customer base while supporting the Company’s strategy of creating a more centralized, scalable and efficient distribution network. The Company believes the award has the potential to increase fresh-cut herb volume and improve operating efficiencies as demand grows, while providing a foundation for Edible Garden to pursue additional stores, products and regional opportunities with Walmart and other major retailers.
Edible Garden’s distribution strategy is supported by its proprietary GreenThumb 2.0™ technology, which helps the Company synchronize growing, inventory, and retailer demand. By improving visibility across its supply chain, the Company seeks to enhance forecasting and fulfillment, preserve product freshness, and reduce excess inventory and waste.

The Company is a multi-year participant in Walmart’s Project Gigaton and has been recognized as a Giga Guru for its efforts to measure, manage, and reduce emissions across its operations and supply chain.
