Blue Diamond® Growers is the world's largest tree nut processing

of California's almond industry from a minor domestic specialty
crop to the world leader in almond production and marketing.
We continue to build markets and create new products, new uses,
and new opportunities for members of Blue Diamond® Growers.
Headquartered in Sacramento, California, approximately
3000 California almond growers deliver California almonds annually
to their cooperative. The crop is marketed to all 50 states

largest food export, and the sixth largest U.S. food export.
The California crop is valued annually at over $1 billion dollars.
