Peddlers Roots

A Fresh Take on Produce Consulting—Backed by Experience, Built on Relationships Meet Peddlers Roots—a produce consulting firm founded on decades of hands-on experience and a family legacy in fresh food distribution. Launched by Brent and Laura Erenwert, who led one of the largest produce distributors in Texas and the Southeast, Peddlers Roots helps foodservice and produce operators move smarter, grow stronger, and operate with purpose. With deep expertise in procurement, logistics, cold storage, food safety, and marketing—they bring real-world knowledge to every partnership.

At Peddlers Roots, produce is the vehicle, but people and partnerships are the mission. Their work supports more than just margins. The company proudly gives back through hunger relief, youth mentorship, ag education, cancer research, animal rescue, and more—because business should stand for something greater.
