ProducePoint.com has opened its corporate offices at the Uni-Kool Center in Salinas, CA. The offices, located at 379 W. Market Street, will house the executive officers of the company in addition to the core software engineering team. "As an agriculture company, we recognize the importance of locating in the Salinas Valley rather than the Silicon Valley," according to co-founder and President, Richard Kaiser, a 30 year veteran of the produce industry. The Salinas office will be the center of ProducePoint.com's operations. Additionally, the company has a software development team located in San Francisco, CA.

ProducePoint.com is an agriculture-related Internet startup whose principals are a blend of the Salinas Valley and Silicon Valley. The company is a business-to-business (B2B) integrator that will provide an information service to those in the produce industry. ProducePoint's CEO, Rock Clapper, formerly CEO and co-founder of GotSavings.com, says, "There is a tremendous opportunity in the produce industry to take advantage of the Internet as a tool to access information." Technology employed by ProducePoint.com, using the Internet, will enable buyers and sellers of produce to make up-to-the-minute decisions on commodities they purchase or sell.
