Sun-Maid, a grower-owned cooperative, has a long and successful history in this area where grapes are a major crop. Formed in1912 as the California Associated Raisin Company, the Sun-Maid brand was launched three years later.

With only a few tweaks over the years, the logo remains the familiar young lady in a red bonnet holding a basket of Thompson grapes. She tells us sunlight travels 93 million miles to turn these grapes into Sun-Maid Raisins. "And that's all we put in: grapes and sunshine."

The public is welcome to visit the company's store at the Bethel Avenue plant. Here, a broad range of raisin products, confections, gifts and gourmet items are sold.
