In the beginning

In the beginning

More than four decades ago, when Sinclair was founded in Norwich, England, the majority of produce branding was on the box. Individual fruits and vegetables had no identity.

We decided it was time to give fruits and vegetables the branding they deserve. As a result, we pioneered the development of patented technology in automatic high-speed fruit-labeling systems for individual pieces of fresh produce — often running at 12 fruit per second.

Today, we deliver a comprehensive offering of food-safe fresh produce labels and labeling equipment that enable packers and shippers to showcase their brand identity and differentiate themselves.

Based in Fresno, California, and Norwich, England, Sinclair now has 9 label-manufacturing sites around the world with labeling systems installed in more than 45 countries worldwide.

Our labels are unsurpassed, comprised of micro-thin material that is food-safe and complies with requirements of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Union (EU).
